The Museum is located in the quiet provincial town of Ansfelden and is its main attraction.

Composer Josef Anton Bruckner was born in 1923 in the family of a teacher. The talent in him was recognized at a very young age. At the age of 4, he was able to pick up a few tunes on the violin by ear. His penchant for music probably came from his mother, who sang wonderfully in the Church choir.

Little Anton loved to go to Church services and listen to the charming sounds of the organ. Actually, there began his first steps in music. His father allowed him to play the cherished instrument. At the age of 11, Bruckner was taken under the wing of his godfather, organist Johann Baptist Weiss, who became his teacher. During this period, the novice musician for the first time tried not just to play notes, but to improvise.

Anton was very lucky with the teachers because his next teacher was Anton Kattinger himself. Kattinger was called by contemporaries, "the Beethoven of the organ". A great event was the opportunity for a novice musician to play the monastery organ that was second in size after the instrument of St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna. After moving to Linz, Bruckner again found a great mentor, the musician Dürnberger.

A huge role in his work was played by his acquaintance with Wagner in 1863. By that time, Anton had worked at the monastery school of St. Florian, became a permanent organist of the monastery, and went on to play at The Linz Cathedral. Wagner changed his world. Thanks to him, Anton began to use innovative ideas in music.

Anton started working at the Vienna Conservatory in 1867. He continued to write, "Great mass No. 3 in f minor". Two years later, he had the chance to perform at a concert dedicated to the opening of the Church in Nansa. The performance was a stunning success, after which he received an invitation to play in the famous Notre-Dame de Paris.

In 1875, Bruckner became an associate professor at the University of Vienna, and three years later became organist of the Court chapel. In 1886, he was awarded the order of Franz Joseph.

In the museum named after the great organist, it is possible to see his notes and get in touch with the history of creating fascinating music that still wins the hearts of all connoisseurs.
