Schanzeln

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich Eduard Meyerheim: The Bowling Gamesters, 1834

Schanzeln or Schanz'ln is a variation of the European skittles game of Kegeln, at which very high wagers were often placed, which is why it ended up on the list of games prohibited in Austria-Hungary in 1904. One enthusiastic fan of this game was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
