When Schiller died in Weimar on May 9, 1805, the house where he was born had been temporarily forgotten. But just a few years later, with the poet's growing fame, it became a popular pilgrimage destination. The Marbach Schiller Association acquired the house and made it publicly accessible as a collection and memorial site from the Schiller anniversary in 1859.
Since then, the house has been completely redesigned several times. This was also the case on the occasion of Schiller Year 2009, for which the memorial received a completely redesigned permanent exhibition. It was opened on February 2, 2009 by the then Prime Minister Günther Oettinger.

Very beautiful and historic old town in Marbach am Neckar. The old half-timbered buildings are very well maintained. The house where Friedrich Schiller was born is beautifully decorated. Built on a slope, you can see it immediately, whether coming from above or below. There is a small museum inside the house.
