• “Bach and Luther”: Their childhood in Eisenach – Luther’s love of music – Bach, the faithful Lutheran
• “From the cow horn to the Double Bell”: Tour including the Marc Aurel Hett Hall with an exhibit on the development of wind instruments

Individual themes are also possible.

For all guided tours an advance booking is required.
