Dumbastraße 6
This old and derelict villa is located next to Ohrenstein Villa at the end of Dumbastrasse, in the direction of the Mount Katrin cable car station.
Built in 1873 on a huge plot, Rudolf Schanzer (the name giver of the villa) bought the house in 1923.
The Viennese-born Schanzer, who was friends with operetta composer Leo Fall and composer Oscar Strauss when he was a young writer, met his old friends again here in Ischl. Here in this villa, the artist also met with playwright Ernst Welisch and singer Trude Lieske. The villa was also known as “the operetta production place of Ischl”.
