History:
In 1911 the skiing association of the Austrian section of the Germany and Austrian alpine club built a ski jumping facility with two ski jumps behind Stuhleckerhof at Steinhaus am Semmering. The S.S.A.-Schanze or Austria-Schanze hosted "international ski meetings" in the following years, where jumps up to 40 meters were performed.
After World War I, the ski championships of Vienna were held at Steinhaus in 1920. In 1923-24 the ski jump was reconstructed and during trial jumping ahead of the Vienna championships Dagfin Carlsen from Norway jumped 41 meters. In subsequent years the Vienna ski club (WSC) frequently organized competitions at Steinhaus, such as an annual new year's day event and further editions of the state championships. It is remarkable that also women were competing and having championships there during 1920s and 30s. With World War II the ski jumping activities on Austria-Schanze and in Steinhaus ended.

Vielen Dank für Ihren Hinweis, wir haben den Text angepasst.
Korrektur
Hier ist leider ein Fehler unterlaufen. Der Stuhleckerhof hatte nie etwas mit dem Gasthof Gesslbauer zu tun sondern war ein Konkurrenzunternehmen, das Gebäude selbst, stehend an der Ortseinfahrt ist mittlerweile zu Wohnungen umfunktioniert worden, während der Gasthof Gesslbauer im Ortszentrum stehend nach wie vor in Betrieb ist.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
A. Scholz
