Siegfried & Roy’s Former Vegas Compound Lands a Buyer Within Days
Realtor.com
Siegfried & Roy’s former home in Las Vegas didn’t stay on the market long.
The compound was sold within days for the $3 million asking price to Brett Carden, owner of the Carden International Circus, according to multiple reports. However, the listing still shows as active on Realtor.com®.
Commonly known as the Jungle Palace, the compound was where magicians and entertainers Siegfried Fischbacher and Roy Horn lived with many of their exotic animals.
Fischbacher and Horn bought the compound in 1982 and transformed it into a place where they could live with their animals, including lions and tigers, some of which were said to sleep in the bed with Horn.
The compound dates to 1954 and encompasses multiple parcels with several homes, three pools, and animal enclosures.

Published reports say Horn lived in the main home while Fischbacher lived in one of the other homes on the property.
The main house is 8,750 square feet with two bedrooms and four bathrooms. It features stained-glass windows, a black bathroom with a red tub, custom artwork, and a large pool.

One guesthouse is 1,588 square feet with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a pool of its own.
Another home measures 1,875 square feet and also has a pool along with two bedrooms and two bathrooms.
The largest guesthouse is 1,959 square feet, with three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Six electric gates, with at least one displaying the pair’s initials SR, protect the property.

The reports say the new owners have big plans for the estate and wanted to keep it from being torn down.
During a show at the Mirage in October 2003, a white tiger attacked Horn, seriously injuring him and ending the duo’s longtime Vegas show.
Horn died at age 75 from complications from COVID-19 in May 2020.
Fischbacher died in January 2021 at the age of 81.
