Vienna
Vienna is the capital city of Austria and the home to many notable artists, including renowned musicians such as Ludwig van Beethoven. In 1824, Beethoven had completed Symphony No. 9, and was preparing to premier the composition at a Viennese theater. However, Bowser travels back in time and steals it from Vienna, and Mario later travels back in time again to return it. Mario, not knowing that the music sheet in his possession is Beethoven's Symphony No. 9, questions the locals in Vienna about the item and his whereabouts, including the owner of the Swan Inn, which eventually leds him to discover the sheet's true owner. Mario runs to Symphony Hall, where Beethoven is about to perform his symphony, gives him the music, and promptly leaves Vienna.
