Villa Habsburg, Architectural heritage monument in Pöcking, Germany.

Villa Habsburg is a neoclassical villa in Pöcking with a mansard roof and a balcony (Söller) across the facade, the result of a 1922 rebuild for Hedwig Schmid. It has five storeys and 19 rooms, with some original wood panelling and chandeliers still in place. A tree-lined drive crosses the roughly 6,000 m² plot on the Pesthügel to the house, which stands on the hilltop and is not visible from Hindenburgstrasse.

Villa Habsburg was built in 1901 by court building officer Eugen Drollinger for court conductor Hugo Röhr and his wife, soprano Sophie Röhr-Brajnin, who ran a singing school there. In 1922 the new owner Hedwig Schmid, enriched through oil shares, had it rebuilt into a symmetrical neoclassical villa with a mansard roof and a balcony loggia before the facade.

The villa served as a singing school where soprano Sophie Röhr-Brajnin trained young female students who stayed with local families during the early 1900s. This musical role shaped the cultural life of the surrounding area.

The property is accessible only by private drives and provides complete seclusion from the public street. Visitors should inquire about access arrangements in advance, as this remains a private residential property.

From 1954 until 2011, Otto von Habsburg, eldest son of Austria's last emperor, resided here and the estate became known as Villa Austria during that period. This chapter significantly shaped how people viewed the property internationally.
