Villa Blumenthal, Bad Ischl, Protected heritage villa in Bad Ischl, Austria.

The Villa Blumenthal stands on Engleitenstraße 19, constructed from Canadian pitch pine wood with detailed dragon motifs and ornate window decorations.

Originally built in Berlin in 1890, the villa traveled to Chicago for the 1893 World's Fair before being transported to Bad Ischl in 1895.

Playwright Oskar Blumenthal wrote the comedy 'Im Weißen Rössl' in this villa, later adapted into a successful operetta performed worldwide.

The villa features an advanced heating system with an iron stove in the basement that distributes warm air through all floors of the building.

This wooden structure crossed the Atlantic Ocean three times: first as raw materials, then as an exhibition piece, and finally as a disassembled home.
