"LA NOTTE ITALIANA" Italo Hits with Dolce Vita

Papierfabrik Variete, Klein-Neusiedl

Kirchenlatz 9, 2431 Klein-Neusiedl

One of Lower Austria's oldest surviving factories stands on the Fischa in Klein-Neusiedl. The paper factory was built at the end of the 18th century on the initiative of Viennese wholesaler Ignaz Theodor Pachner. For a long time, paper for banknotes and government securities was even printed here, but production ceased in the early 1930s. The three-storey main building and the historic outbuildings are now listed as protected monuments. Since 2023, former circus artists Seraina and Marc Dorffner have been running a permanent variety theatre in the renovated production building. Under high arched windows, the audience sits at tables or in the stands and experiences acrobatics, magic and in-house productions, as well as cabaret with Dirk Stermann or Malarina, the Teilzeitdivas or classical music in the programme "Haydn and the Movies". The evening includes the in-house Varieté Bar with wine, beer, tarte flambée and pretzels. It opens before the performance, so the old factory walls become a meeting point even before the show.
