Usually these sites are just one building - where the luminary used to live - that serves all purposes. Here you will find the house where Goethe was born, a fairly well-to-do affair which is interestingly decorated, a picture gallery dedicated to the Age of Goethe and a museum of literature which holds frequent readings, lectures and concerts.
