thank you very much HPL.
Wow, what a museum. Definitely worths a visit. Thanks for this thread friend.
Looking for the photo albums of Leutnant Emil Freitag, 3. / G.R. 377
Thank you for the finely presented thread - and superb photographs. Wien is a wonderful city - truly, one of Europe's gems.
Very good thread buddy. I really enjoyed the pictures.
Postscript: Having spent the past Easter weekend in Vienna, I took the opportunity to revisit the Austrian Army Museum three years after my first visit.
A statue of an Uhlan in front of the main entrance now greets the visitors. This is a copy of a work created ca. 1914/15 by the artist Arthur Kaan (1867 - 1940):
During my first visit, the WWI section was closed for renovation and re-modelling. It has since re-opened, so I could catch up with what I had been missing the first time around. Due to lighting conditions etc., we once again took hardly any photographs, but here are a very few highlights from that section:
The 1911 Gräf & Stift automobile in which Archduke Franz Ferdinand took his last fateful car ride (his bloodstained uniform is also on display in the same room):
A 38 cm super-heavy Belagerungshaubitze [siege howitzer] M 16:
The Marshal's Baton of Archduke Friedrich von Österreich-Teschen (1856 - 1936), Supreme Commander of the Austro-Hungarian Army, promoted to Feldmarschall in 1914:
...and the Marshal's Baton of Franz Conrad von Hötzendorf (1852 - 1925), Chief of the General Staff of Austria-Hungary, promoted to Feldmarschall in 1916:
Thanks for sharing these pictures Andreas! I am jealous that there is no American museum with displays like these! The Austrian history is very interesting. I am looking into the Poles who lived in Austrian territory.
Nice photos - thanks. I remember the Borgward was dug up at the site of a train station. NH
I'm glad this got bumped to the top.
Thank you Sir for the fine pic's of a beautiful museum.
