*) The House of Music was opened in the First District,
not far from the Opera,
in 2000 as a museum of the 21st century.
The building is a former Habsburg palace
where Otto Nicolai (1810-1849),
founder of the Vienna Philharmonic, once lived.
Read more about it at the City of Vienna website (english edition).
