The museum is just on the edge of the main town square and takes about 10-15 mins to walk from the bus station. Having called up the previous day, we had arranged an english tour guide. On our arrival, the lady at reception very apologetically informed us that the tour guide was away. However, she provided us with an audio guide free of charge which contained 9 different tracks in English. I personally was quite disappointed with the museum because firstly, there were very few authentic artefacts. Even the documents behind glass were clearly photocopies. Second, the information in the museum relates mostly to Mahler's years of his life in which he resided in the house. I was very disappointed that hardly anything in the museum related to his music or musical composition. I understand that Mahler's musical history is probably more appropriately provided in his composition huts in Austria, however I was still disappointed at the lack of musical content. I did however learn some knowledge about Mahler's family life that I did not previously know. However, on the whole I would unfortunately not recommend this museum to others.
