The Consecration of the House (or Die Weihe des Hauses), Op. 124, is a work by Ludwig van Beethoven composed in September 1822. It was commissioned by Carl Friedrich Hensler, the Director of Vienna's new Theater in der Josefstadt, and was first performed at the theatre's opening on October 3, 1822. It was the first work Beethoven wrote after his revival of studying the works of J. S. Bach and Handel, and bears their influence.
The Consecration of the House overture was also the first item on the program at Beethoven’s 7 May 1824 concert at Vienna’s Theater am Kärntnertor, where the world premiere of his 9th Symphony took place.
