Information About

Hieronymus Graf Von Colloredo




He is known as the first patron of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart . At the beginning, he was sympathetic towards Mozart which later on turns to annoyance towards Mozart's frequent absences. After a number of arguments, he ultimately dismissed him from his service with the words, "Mag Er geh'n, Ich brauch' Ihn nicht!" ("May he leave, I don't need him!").
