  • History Society Trip to Prague and Vienna, 2018
    History Society trip to Prague and Vienna, 2018 As one of the Trip Officers for the Edinburgh University History Society, Student Ambassador Carmen was responsible for organising a trip to Budapest and Vienna for 40 society members during Innovative Learning Week. While we were only away for 5 days, it felt like ages because we did so much in both cities! – Carmen Day 1: Monday, 19th of February Our flight to Budapest was extremely early – but this meant we got there really early too, giving us plenty of time to get our bearings! While the sky was blue, it was freezing cold as we walked around streets on the Pest side of the city, taking in the amazing views of Liberty Square & Parliament Square. After giving everyone a few hours to have dinner (and a nap after a long day of travelling!), we met up again to see the iconic Hungarian Parliament building light up at night. Here, we were able to get a big group photo, before running off to take some night shots of the stunning view over the River Danube! Day 2: Tuesday, 20th of February On our second day, we walked along the Széchenyi Chain Bridge (covered in snow!) to go across the Danube to Buda Castle. Using our trusty Budapest Cards, we were able to get a free Castle bus that took us outside the building – a lifesaver considering it was a very uphill walk! Some of our group were lucky enough to see the changing of the guard at the Sándor Palace, the residence of the Hungarian President.

  • Notes of Michael J. Zeps, SJ
    Marquette University e-Publications@Marquette History Faculty Research and Publications History Department 1-1-2011 Documents of Baudirektion Wien 1919-1941: Notes of Michael J. Zeps, S.J. Michael J. Zeps S.J. Marquette University, [email protected] Preface While doing research in Vienna for my dissertation on relations between Church and State in Austria between the wars I became intrigued by the outward appearance of the public housing projects put up by Red Vienna at the same time. They seemed to have a martial cast to them not at all restricted to the famous Karl-Marx-Hof so, against advice that I would find nothing, I decided to see what could be found in the archives of the Stadtbauamt to tie the architecture of the program to the civil war of 1934 when the structures became the principal focus of conflict. I found no direct tie anywhere in the documents but uncovered some circumstantial evidence that might be explored in the future. One reason for publishing these notes is to save researchers from the same dead end I ran into. This is not to say no evidence was ever present because there are many missing documents in the sequence which might turn up in the future—there is more than one complaint to be found about staff members taking documents and not returning them—and the socialists who controlled the records had an interest in denying any connection both before and after the civil war. Certain kinds of records are simply not there including assessments of personnel which are in the files of the Magistratsdirektion not accessible to the public and minutes of most meetings within the various Magistrats Abteilungen connected with the program.

  • Herbert Haupt, Der Heldenplatz (2000)
    Demokratiezentrum Wien Onlinequelle: www.demokratiezentrum.org Printquelle: in: Douer, Alisa (Hg.): Wien Heldenplatz. Mythen und Massen. 1848 bis 1998. Verlag Mandelbaum, Wien 2000, S. 13-22 Herbert Haupt Der Heldenplatz Ein Stück europäischer Geschichte im Herzen von Wien Was Wien für die Monarchie ist, das ist die Hofburg für Wien: Der eigentliche Mittelpunkt der Stadt« Richard von Eitelberger, 1859 Zunächst mußte Raum geschaffen werden, damit überhaupt ein Platz entstehen konnte. Am Beginn der Geschichte des Heldenplatzes steht die Sprengung der Burgbastei durch die abziehenden französischen Truppen im Dezember des Jahres 1809. Napoleon hatte mit der Eroberung Wiens (13. Mai 1809) und dem Frieden von Schönbrunn (14. Oktober 1809) den Höhepunkt seiner Macht erreicht. Es war ein blutiger, hart umkämpfter Sieg gewesen, der am Nimbus der Unbesiegbarkeit des Kaisers der Franzosen erste Flecken hinterließ. In der Schlacht bei Aspern und Eßling hatte sich Napoleon zum erstenmal einer einzelnen Macht geschlagen geben müssen. Erzherzog Carl (1771–1847) sollte 50 Jahre später am äußeren Burgplatz ein Denkmal zur Erinnerung an den Sieg errichtet werden. Als bleibende Erinnerung an seine halbjährige Regentschaft in Wien ließ Napoleon vor seinem Abzug die zum Schutze der Hofburg errichtete Bastei sprengen. Doch was als demütigendes Zeichen gedacht war, nahm in Wirklichkeit nur eine Arbeit vorweg, die Kaiser Franz I. (1768–1835) von Österreich früher oder später selbst vorzunehmen gezwungen gewesen wäre. Die neue Waffentechnik verlangte nach einem neuen Befestigungssystem. Die Zeit für Bastionen war abgelaufen. Mit dem Abtragen des Schutts und mit der Beseitigung der an der Außenseite der Basteimauer gelegenen Wachthäuser ließ man sich Zeit. Erst 1816 wurde mit der Planierung des den größeren Teil des heutigen Heldenplatzes umfassenden Areals der Burgbastei begonnen.

  • Vienna Guide
    April 22—24, 2015, Vienna, Austria Hotel Park Royal Palace Vienna Guide SIGHTSEEING Vienna is old, Vienna is new… and the sights are so varied: from the magnificent Baroque buildings to “golden” Art Nouveau to the latest architecture. And over 100 museums beckon… ALBERTINA The Albertina has the largest and most valuable graphical collection in the world, including works such as Dürer’s “Hare” and Klimt‘s studies of women. Its latest exhibition presents masterpieces of the Modern era, spanning from Monet to Picasso and Baselitz. As the largest Hapsburg residential palace, the Albertina dominates the southern tip of the Imperial Palace on one of the last remaining fortress walls in Vienna. ANKER CLOCK This clock (built 1911–14) was created by the painter and sculptor Franz von Matsch and is a typical Art Nouveau design. It forms a bridge between the two parts of the Anker Insurance Company building. In the course of 12 hours, 12 historical figures (or pairs of figures) move across the bridge. Every day at noon, the figures parade, each accompanied by music from its era. AUGARTEN PORCELAIN MANUFacTORY Founded in 1718, the Vienna Porcelain Manufactory is the second-oldest in Europe. Now as then, porcelain continues to be made and painted by hand. Each piece is thus unique. A tour of the manufactory in the former imperial pleasure palace at Augarten gives visitors an idea of how much love for detail goes into the making of each individual piece. The designs of Augarten have been created in cooperation with notable artists since the manufactory was established.

This situation has made the search for a single Austro-Hungarian identity so difficult that many historians have declared it impossible. Yet the Dual Monarchy possessed one potentially unifying cultural aspect that has long been critically neglected: the extensive repertoire of marches and patriotic music performed by the military bands of the Imperial and Royal Austro- Hungarian Army. This Militärmusik actively blended idioms representing the various nationalist musics from around the empire in an attempt to reflect and even celebrate its multinational makeup.
