I liked it was off the main tourist areas... interesting. There is a large park area around the house and at times small outdoor concerts near by.
The view worth by itself. However, it is must if we consider the musical historical background of the house, and especially with you are a music lover.
The house where Wagner lived for 6 years and composed some of his most memorable works, including the Siegfried Idyll, first performed on the staircase of the house as Cosima Wagner's surprise birthday present.
Let's face it, you'll know if you want to look round one of the houses where Wagner lived. Getting to walk up 'that' staircase will either be a must do or have no interest whatsoever. This review will have no impact on your decision.
That said, Tribschen is worth the trip. A beautifully maintained building with helpful staff.

Spent an interesting couple of hours touring the museum and grounds. Interesting (and commendable) that they include clips from movies of Wagner's life that reveal his egotism as well as his talent. I felt I gained a better appreciation of how he lived here and what he accomplished in this place.
A charming house on the lake, this museum not only has some of Wagner's personal possessions (such as his piano), but provides much historical info about the composer and gives an opportunity to listen to much of his music.
A little old fashioned museum but with an outstanding collection of Wagner's memorablia. Good walk along Lakeside from Rail Station but worth the effort. The home where Wagner actually lived for six years.
