Nannerl Mozart (Mozart’s sister)
Lorenz Hagenauer (the Mozart family's friend and landlord)
Michael Haydn (Joseph Haydn's younger brother)
Paul Hofhaimer (organist and composer)
Sigmund Haffner (benefactor and mayor, friend of the Mozart family. Mozart mentioned him in his works "Haffner Serenade" and "Haffner Symphony")
