In 1886, Franz Liszt traveled to Bayreuth to attend the festival, which was directed by his daughter Cosima, Richard Wagner's widow. At the time of the trip, Liszt was already seriously ill. He died on July 31, 1886, a few days after his arrival, at the age of 74 from the effects of pneumonia. Liszt was buried in the Bayreuth city cemetery. The house where he died in Untere Siegfriedstrasse (today: Wahnfriedstrasse 9) opposite the Villa Wahnfried has housed the Franz Liszt Museum since 1993.
