 In April of that year, the Wagners left Tribschen and settled in Bayreuth, the small town in Bavaria where a festival theatre was to be constructed for the premiere of the "Ring".A year later, on 28 April 1873, they moved into Wahnfried, Wagner's new mansion in Bayreuth.On 3 May 1873, just five days after taking up residence in Wahnfried, Wagner began the full score of Götterdämmerung.
