'''Tribschen''' (also seen as ''Triebschen'') is a district of the city of [[Lucerne]], in the [[Canton of Lucerne]] in central [[Switzerland]].

Tribschen is best known today as the home of the German composer [[Richard Wagner]] from 30 March 1866 to 22 April 1872. When Wagner was obliged to leave [[Munich]] in March 1866, he moved to a spacious villa in Tribschen on a headland projecting into [[Lake Lucerne]]. It was while he was living here that Wagner completed the score of {{lang|de|[[Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg]]}}, composed his "Emperor March" and the third act of {{lang|de|[[Siegfried (opera)|Siegfried]]}}, and began {{lang|de|[[Götterdämmerung]]}}.

It was also at Tribschen that he composed his {{lang|de|[[Siegfried Idyll]]}} as a birthday gift to his second wife, [[Cosima Wagner|Cosima]], who had recently given birth to the couple's first legitimate child, a son named [[Siegfried Wagner|Siegfried]]. The couple had had two children while Cosima was married to conductor [[Hans von Bülow]]. The {{lang|de|Siegfried Idyll}} was performed for the first time on Christmas morning, 25 December 1870, by an ensemble of fifteen players (among them [[Hans Richter (conductor)|Richter]], Ruhoff, [[Georg Wilhelm Rauchenecker|Rauchenecker]] and Kahl) on the stairs of the villa. It was a birthday present for Cosima; she had turned 33 the previous day, 24 December, but she always celebrated her birthday on Christmas Day. One of the guests present at this performance was the newly appointed 24-year-old professor of classical [[philology]] at the [[University of Basel]], [[Friedrich Nietzsche]].<ref>Raymond Geuss, "Nietzsche: The Birth of Tragedy" in ''Introductions to Nietzsche'', Ed. Robert Pippin. Cambridge UP, 2012, p.44</ref>

Today the villa is the [[Richard Wagner Museum, Lucerne|Richard Wagner Museum]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.richard-wagner-museum.ch/home-en-us/ |title=Startseite |website=Richard Wagner Museum |access-date=2018-03-26}}</ref>
