Reisroute
Ontdek interieurs met verhalen om te vertellen Dwaal door de schitterende zalen op de bel-étage van Paleis Esterházy en bewonder de kunsthistorische schatten uit de collectie. Een rondleiding op de eerste verdieping vertelt het verhaal van een opmerkelijke en sterke persoonlijkheid: Melinda Esterházy. Op de begane grond van het paleis wordt het verhaal van Joseph Haydn als muziekdirecteur en componist in dienst van de Esterházy-prinsen levendig tot leven gebracht. Multimediastations, projectinstallaties en bijzondere tentoonstellingen volgen het werk van dit muzikale genie. In de meer dan 300 jaar oude paleiskelders met meer dan 700 zeldzame, bijzondere en soms al lang vergeten voorwerpen met betrekking tot wijn en wijnbouw – van historische vaten tot de oudste Baumpress van Burgenland – presenteert het Wijnmuseum op meeslepende wijze de geschiedenis van de wijnbereiding onder de Esterházy-vorsten. Vanwege aanhoudende evenementen kunnen er af en toe beperkingen gelden voor het bezoeken van de Haydn-hal.

This is an establishment that has only one point of attraction: the Haydn room. The entrance price is 19€. In principle as inner furnishing may be compared to the Palazzo Ducale in Mantova (18€), which in turn is gorgeously decorated and much bigger.
Thank you for sharing your experience of your visit at Esterházy Palace. Regarding your dissatisfaction, we wonder whether you actually visited all of the exhibition areas? The state rooms, including the former dining room, the Chinese salons with their magnificent wall coverings, the Hall of Mirrors, and the Red Salon, which served as the princess's sitting room, impressively depict the opulent lifestyle of that era. It was here where Haydn's famous Emperor Quartet, whose melody is now the German national anthem, was premiered. In addition to the state rooms and the Haydn Hall, there is the “Haydn Explosive” exhibition about the great composer Joseph Haydn, who worked in the palace for decades. One exhibition focuses on Melinda Esterházy, the last princess, and the historic cellar vaults house one of the largest wine museums. Esterházy Palace offers a variety of exciting tours and opportunities for exploration. We recommend that visitors take a guided tour or use an audio guide to explore the palace, as these provide valuable information that the rooms alone cannot convey. We would be delighted if you took advantage of this on your next visit.
Entertaining stay, interesting exhibitions. Free admission with the Burgenland Card. Small and pretty boutique integrated.
Stopped along the way to Sopron, family and I are big music people and musicians ourselves, so we came to see where Haydn lived and wrote- unfortunately, all of the Haydn rooms were closed or off limits unless you took the tour (the only English guided tour was not amenable to our timeframe- German guided tours were offered more regularly but none of us are fluent.) Still a very unique palace, “Versailles of Austria-Hungary”, however, is a very trumped up expectation it failed to live up to, immensely. The Esterházy family history was very cool, but all in all? A pretty big disappointment even if it was still a good experience. The palace has been turned into a museum and the layout is somewhat confusing, especially the basement.
Beautiful romantic palace, amazing to visit and so much to see, lots of historical pieces to view and amazing scenery, the rose garden and hedge maze is 100% to visit!
The highlights were the winery and the treasures carefully preserved through centuries of upheaval. The decor was very Andy Warhol on the way in which was horrific especially so close to the actual gold carriage of the Magister. I feel this banal attempt to modernise is unnecessary especially in a listed building. Overall it was a stunning privilege to visit and the QR codes in each room were a welcome addition.
Very interesting castle, especially for a musician due to the connection with Haydn. Lots of stuff about him, although I could have probably done without the odd wallpaper in the Haydn rooms. Pleasant staff.
We have visited the castle several times and were excited to see if there was anything new. Unfortunately, we were disappointed. You can see the state rooms and the wine museum as well as the Joseph Haiden Museum, and the Linda exhibition is still the same. There was nothing new. But the entrance fee has gone up considerably (19.-)
This is just over an hour from Vienna by bus or train ( expect to pay c 25 euros for a return trip by train - 2023 prices). Palace is c 15/ 20 minute walk from the station (slightly uphill) Lots of exhibitions and items of interest. I would strongly advise paying the extra and taking one of the guided tours, particularly if you are a Haydn fan, as you get into areas, that are less open and that are very Haydn related.
The Haydnsaal with the matinee performed by an excellent string quartet. Very nice castle park also.
It is the palace of the Esterhazy family, which had among its illustrious guests the famous composer Haydn. The tour of the palace is divided into three parts: on the ground floor, there is a museum section entirely dedicated to the famous composer and his music; the first floor is dedicated to the story of the last prince of the Esterhazy and his wife, with the Haydn concert hall with its beautiful eighteenth-century frescoes, as well as the other rooms of the noble apartments of the family; while in the basement there is the museum on wine. The tour of the residence is undoubtedly very interesting but I would not have been so satisfied if I had to pay the €19 ticket, which is instead free with the NÖ Card.
