The starting point was Jules Maximilien Thibaut, Prince de Montl\u00e9art, Marquis de Rumont, who had acquired a castle (predecessor building) located there in 1824.

After a generous donation of 300K crowns for the construction of a hospital, the \u201cWilhelminenspital\u201d (since 2020 Klinik Ottakring) was named after her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Incidentally, the family&#8217;s legal advisor for decades was the lawyer Dr. Cajetan Felder, who recorded many details about the Montl\u00e9arts in his memoirs and, as Mayor of Vienna from 1868, provided important impetus for the city of Vienna.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The neo-Gothic mausoleum of Moritz and Wilhelmine von Montl\u00e9art in the palace park on Gallitzinberg in the 16th district commemorates the French aristocratic Montl\u00e9art family, who settled in Vienna at the beginning of the 19th century.
