About
The composing hut of Gustav Mahler, German: Gustav Mahler-Komponierhäuschen, is a little museum and memorial in Steinbach at lake Attersee in Upper Austria. It is dedicated to the classical composer Gustav Mahler (1860–1911). In this hut he retreated from 1893 to 1896 in order to compose music. Since 1985 a permanent exhibition can be seen here. Other composing huts of Mahler still exist as well. One can be found at lake Wörthersee, also in Austria, and there is one next to the Gustav Mahler Stube in South Tyrol, Italy.
