Beethoven's Baptismal entry
Pastor Peter Isbach1770-12-17
Beethoven-House Bonn
Bonn, Germany
Because in the 18th century many children died immediately after birth, they were baptized as soon as possible after birth. Since it is not known exactly when Beethoven was born, this baptism entry suggests that he was born on December 16 or 17, 1770 - in the Beethoven-Haus in Bonn.
