Villa Strauß, Hietzing
1130 Vienna, Maxingstraße 18
This house, maintained in its original condition (the former streetname was Hetzendorfer Straße), was the couples residence from 1870 -1878. After Jettys death (she had a stroke on April 8th, 1878) Strauß did not return to the house any more and sold it. It was the place where he composed many of his dances and also the first six operettas, among them the renowned "Die Fledermaus".
