biography

Johann or Hans Kazda, who was born as the son of the master mason and from 1900 imperial court stucco master Thomas Kazda, graduated from the building trades department of the master craftsman's school of the state trade school in Vienna's 1st district of inner city between 1885 and 1886 . In 1896 he acquired the license as a builder.

Johann Kazda built residential buildings mainly in the Vienna district of Währing . In addition to his professional function as an architect and builder who worked on behalf of others, he was also active as a builder. According to the contemporary prewar press, he was one of the richest builders in the city.

Relying on a major construction boom after the end of the First World War, Hans Kazda sold his real estate in order to be able to get back into business. Contrary to his hopes, the economy developed poorly, he hardly received any orders and inflation devalued his cash, which was intended as start-up capital.

When Johann Kazda died impoverished in January 1931, the press suspected suicide.
