Life

Toni Ebner was born on December 22nd, 1918 in Aldein and attended the Johanneum grammar school in Tyrol . He then completed a law degree at the University of Bologna , which he graduated in 1943. In 1944 he married Martha Flies, the niece of Canon Michael Gamper .

After the war ended, Ebner was one of the founders of the South Tyrolean People's Party (SVP). In 1948 he was elected as the youngest member of the Italian Chamber of Deputies , to which he belonged for three legislative terms until 1963; in the years 1954–1969 he was sent to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe as the Italian representative . He was party chairman of the SVP twice, from January 4, 1951 to February 16, 1952 and from March 3, 1956 to May 25, 1957 . In this function he played a key role in the hard- fought Brixen municipal council election campaign of 1956 and successfully supported the mayoral candidate Valerius Dejaco . In 1961 Ebner was one of the leading exponents of the party-internal building wing, which rejected the tougher line pursued since the change of leadership under Silvius Magnago in 1957 against the ruling Christian Democrats in Rome and Trento . From 1961 to 1964 he was a member of the Bolzano City Council.

After Michael Gamper's death in 1956, the board of the Athesia publishing house , following the deceased's wish, transferred the management of the company and the post of editor-in-chief of the Dolomiten daily newspaper to Ebner . In 1970 he was awarded the Great Cross of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany, in 1980 he received the Medal of Honor of the State of Tyrol and the Bavarian Order of Merit . On October 2, 1981, he was appointed a member of the Italian Council of State. On December 13, 1981, Ebner died of a heart attack in the Bolzano hospital.

His son Michl Ebner is a former member of the European Parliament, President of the Board of Directors and Managing Director of Athesia, while his son Toni Ebner is editor-in-chief of the Dolomites.
