<Mautner Palace Hall, Florisdorf District Museum, Vienna>
In the early 19th century, Beethoven often left Vienna and stayed in lodgings in Nussdorf and Grinzing during the hot summer days. After he became acquainted with Countess Erdödy, he was often invited to the mansion (Beethoven Memorial Museum) in the village of Jedersee, which was in the Erdödy Count's domain. However, since Nussdorf was located on the opposite bank of the Danube from Jedersee, Beethoven liked to take the shortcut across the Danube River, the Jedersee Bridge, and walked through the Danube Forest, enjoying his walks. The Beethoven Trail, which recalls Beethoven's walks in Jedersee, a place associated with Beethoven, was opened on May 2007, 5. At seven stations along the trail, there are 12m-high sculptures designed by Manfred Satke and made by Josef Fransitz, in the shape of broken tuning forks, as if to indicate Beethoven's hearing loss. The starting point of the Beethoven trail is the Floridsdorf Folk Museum. The mansion that Georg Heinrich Mauthner started building in 7 for his son Georg Anton to live in was originally built in the session style, and after his father's death, Georg Anton rebuilt it in the Baroque style to become the current building, affectionately named Mauthnerschlössel by the locals. After World War II, the city of Vienna bought the mansion and used it as city hall, but after restoration of parts destroyed during the war, it was refurbished and opened to the public as the Floridsdorf Folk Museum in 4, and chamber music and vocal concerts are regularly held in the Mauthner Small Palace Hall inside the building.
