Mozart Museums
You cannot visit Austria without going to the Mozart museums in Salzburg. Mozart was born in the town and grew up there, when his family were not touring Europe. His birthplace is a typical Salzburg town house and the other museum is the larger house his family moved to later. The birthplace has been expanded several times, with the museum now occupying rooms which were not part of the original residence and some of the exhibits are quite strange but fun, including an upside down room. The residence is more traditional and has a collection of letters and compositions as well as instruments.
