Grasmayr-Villa, Protected heritage villa in Old Town, Salzburg, Austria.
The Grasmayr Villa stands on Mönchsberg Street at number 18, featuring English architectural design elements and a prominent double staircase with marble decorations.
Initially constructed as a wooden summer house in 1666, the property underwent multiple transformations, including reconstruction after a fire in 1831 and renovation in 1868.
English landscape painter George Gaskell acquired the villa in 1865 and transformed it according to English villa architecture, adding substantial terraces and observation points.
Located at coordinates 47.7962 latitude and 13.0404 longitude, the villa remains accessible through the Dr. Ludwig Prähauser pathway near Karolinenhöhe.
During World War II, the villa served as a refuge and art studio for Eduard Bäumer, who fled Nazi Germany and continued his painting work there.
