This building, which is more than 400 years old, has hosted many exhibits in honour of poet Joseph Mohr, who gained worldwide fame as the author of the Christmas carol "Silent Night! Holy Night!". Joseph Mohr had a special connection to the idyllic village of Hintersee in the Salzkammergut where he was the parish priest from 1827 to 1837.

A piece of world history: Joseph Mohr, the author of "Silent Night, Holy Night"

Joseph Mohr wrote the text to the carol  "Silent Night, Holy Night" in 1816; it was originally composed for a guitar accompaniment. His original handwritten text was only discovered in 1995, which brought about a reinterpretation of how the song came into being.
