Georg Trakl Birthplace
Georg Trakl’s poems are among the most fascinating works of modern literature.
Little known during the poet’s lifetime, his work had an extraordinary impact following his tragic death.
Today, Trakl is regarded worldwide as one of the most important poets in the German language.
The research and memorial center in Georg Trakl’s birthplace is open to researchers, students, literature enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to learn more about the poet and literary life in Salzburg at the turn of the century. Our offerings include a specialized museum with contemporary literary education formats, the Georg Trakl Archive with a library, and a diverse program of literary and academic events that invite visitors to engage in shared discussions about literature.
