Dr. Simon Dollenz

Simon Dollenz was born in Guttaring in Carinthia as the legitimate son of the miller Johann Dollenz and Anna, née Propst. After elementary school, he attended secondary school in St. Paul and studied in Vienna and Prague, where he joined the student fraternity Nibelungia Wien in 1913 and later the student fraternity Rudolfina. In 1914, he was awarded a doctorate in law. After military service in the First World War and practicing as a notary, he joined the tax authorities in 1920. In 1922, he married Annemarie Suda and subsequently had two daughters with her.

In 1925, he was entrusted with the management of the district tax authority in Perg, Upper Austria - a national stronghold. Simon Dollenz was persecuted and provoked there. In 1926, he was put on trial, as a result of which he was transferred to Vienna in August 1927. After 1933, the devout Catholic and staunch Austrian joined the Vaterländische Front.

As a result, his family was evicted from their home in favor of South Tyrolean repatriates.

After the liberation of Austria and the re-establishment of the Republic, Simon Dollenz was rehabilitated on 22 May 1945 and later became head of the Vienna-Fünfhaus tax office. He joins the newly founded Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) and the ÖVP comradeship of the politically persecuted and confessors for Austria. He becomes a member of other secondary school and student associations.

Simon Dollenz later works in the general management of the Austrian salt works. He retires in this function. He died at the age of 79 and found his final resting place at the cemetery in Vienna-Döbling.
