— 23 June 2009 —

The German government has announced that it will invest €500,000 for the renovation of Richard Wagner's former house. Villa Wahnfried is situated in the city of Bayreuth in South Germany.

In Villa Wahnfried there is also a museum as well as an archive about Wagner. Museum director Sven Friedrich said that museum will be extended with an exhibition about the arguable role the Wagner family played in Nazi-Germany.
