foods was macaroni and
cheese. He also loved very
strong coffee - exactly 60
coffee beans to one cup.
•Beethoven asked many
women to marry him but
none would because he was
so grumpy and difficult.
•When Beethoven died,
schools closed for the day and
the military was called out to
control the public because
they were so sad. The people
of Austria knew that
Beethoven was one of the
greatest musicians of all time.
