The Johann Adolph Hasse Museum is a museum in the Composers Quarter in Hamburg-Neustadt, Germany.

The museum is dedicated to the life and work of the opera composer Johann Adolph Hasse. The presentation starts with his childhood and youth, Hasse being a descendant of church musicians from Hamburg-Bergedorf. He obtained his first music lessons from his father.[1]

The presentation continues with his career as a prominent composer.[1] He and his wife, the opera singer Faustina Bordoni, gained international prestige and played respected roles at the European courts and theaters.[2]

The collection consists of text books of his operas (libretti), historical prints of musical compositions, scenic designs and costumes. One piece from the collection is a replica of an opera stage from the baroque era. The museum makes use of multimedia appliances and is accessible to wheelchair users.[2][3]
