About Storno House
The Storno-ház occupies one of the facades on Sopron’s main square, next to the watchtower. The building acquired its baroque appearance in the 18th century. Its position allows you to relate the house to the urban fabric without leaving the historic core.
The house’s name is linked to the Storno family and the formation of a collection. Rooms and objects help to understand a way of living and assembling historical pieces. The visit serves as an interior counterpoint to observing the facades, revealing another scale of urban life.
Check the exhibitions available within the museum quarter before entering. Some houses on the square are part of connected routes, but each space has its own characteristics. Reserve time for the rooms rather than treating them merely as a passage between streets.
