Villa Senar is an estate built in Switzerland by the Russian composer Sergei Rachmaninoff.
The villa was designed to remind Rachmaninoff of the estate of Ivanovka the family had in southern Russia before the October Revolution and their migration to Western Europe in 1918.
The Rachmaninoffs spent every summer at Senar until their final migration to the United States in 1939 at the outbreak of World War II.
The villa hosted famous Russian immigrants, including Ivan Bunin and Vladimir Horowitz.
Rachmaninoff left Senar for the last time on 16 August 1939, going to Paris and preparing to move to New York City.
