His mother Ernestine Taube remained in Vienna after the [[Anschluss]], and at the age of 83, in August 1942, was deported to [[Theresienstadt concentration camp]], where she died two months later. Artur Schnabel never returned to Germany or Austria after the war. He continued to give concerts on both sides of the Atlantic until the end of his life, as well as composing and continuing to make records, although he was never very fond of the whole studio process. He died in Axenstein, [[Switzerland]], and was buried in [[Schwyz]], Switzerland. Schnabel was awarded the [[Order of Prince Danilo I]].<ref>{{Cite book|last=Acović|first=Dragomir|title=Slava i čast: Odlikovanja među Srbima, Srbi među odlikovanjima|year=2012|location=Belgrade|publisher=Službeni Glasnik|pages=364}}</ref>
