Bayreuth

We are visiting Bayreuth (will miss the festival in august) and would like to find out what one can visit regarding Wagner when the festival is not going on. Also a neat place to stay.

I haven't made my pilgrimage there yet, but I know you can visit his house. Although it's not very close to Bayreuth, Neuschwanstein is basically a giant shrine to Wagner. A modern equivalent would be if Obama redecorated the White House with a Star Wars theme.
