Vice-Chancellor Mag. Gerald Ebinger, who has written a book about this versatile and interesting personality, will give an insight into the man, the politician, the internationally recognised entomologist, hist work and legacy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The focus of the liberal-minded mayor&#8217;s term in office was primarily the development of a metropolitan system for the imperial capital and residence city. Examples of Felder&#8217;s municipal policies include the construction of the town hall on the Glacis in Josefstadt and the projects for the Central Cemetery and the 1873 World&#8217;s Fair. However, the lawyer also made a name for himself as a linguist, scholar and portrait collector.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Registration until 13 September 2024 to <a href=\"mailto:kanzleramt@georgsorden.eu\">kanzleramt@georgsorden.eu<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"08-2024-Dollfuss\">&#8220;The state that everyone wanted in the end&#8221;<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>25 September 2024, Start: 7 pm<\/strong><br>Order Residence, Rennweg 10, 1030 Vienna, Austria<br><em>Participation also possible online via Zoom<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Committee of Honorary Knights will focus on the recently published book \u2018The state that everyone wanted in the end\u2019. The book is about the political role and vision of Engelbert Dollfu\u00df, whose assassination by the Nazis was commemorated for the 90th time at the end of July. As Federal Chancellor, he fought against the general depression following the lost war and the growing desire of politicians and large sections of the population to join the \u2018big brother\u2019 Germany. He, however, believed in Austria and in the country&#8217;s ability to maintain its independence, even though it did not yet feel like a nation at the time. A personality who continues to polarise opinion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We are therefore delighted to welcome the author of the book, historian Dr. Hannes Kammerst\u00e4tter, who opens up surprising new perspectives on Chancellor Dollfu\u00df in his work, to this important and often ideologically distorted chapter of Austrian history. The forewords to his book were written by the Chairman of our Knights of Honour, former Governor of Salzburg Univ. Prof. Dr. Franz Schausberger and Knight of Honour and former President of the Salzburg Parliament Ing. Hans Penz, who will both be present and discuss the book with us.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Registration to <a href=\"mailto:kanzleramt@georgsorden.eu\">kanzleramt@georgsorden.eu<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-a64d0dfa-b7c9-472a-a095-af8612d15dd9\" href=\"https:\/\/www.georgsorden.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Invitation-HonoraryKnights-09-2024_EN.pdf\">Invitation book presentation<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.georgsorden.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Invitation-HonoraryKnights-09-2024_EN.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-a64d0dfa-b7c9-472a-a095-af8612d15dd9\">Download<\/a><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"08-2024-Gedenkmesse\">Solemn Mass Blessed Emperor Karl I.<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>3 October 2024, Solemn mass: 6 pm<\/strong><br>Salesian Church, Rennweg 10, 1030 Vienna, Austria<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On 3 October 2004, Saint Pope John Paul II solemnly beatified Emperor Karl I.

However, many traditional Christians want to remain in Iraq, especially in the northern Kurdish autonomous region, and live their religion openly in their own homeland. They have a right to our solidarity and support!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Dames of the Order of St. George, in conjunction with the Spiritual Council, have therefore decided to do all they can to support the Christians in northern Iraq. They want to help them rebuild or renovate at least one St. George&#8217;s Church, especially as St. George is highly revered in the Orient. Many churches in Syria and Iraq have been destroyed by IS terrorists. From the Dames&#8217;s point of view, these churches also play an important role as a social hub, because for the Christians they are more than just a place of prayer and worship, but the centre of their social life and a prerequisite for them to stay.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>An informative evening will therefore be organised, at which Father Samir Al-Khoury, Chaldean Catholic priest from Enishke, who will be travelling with young people from northern Iraq, will talk about the situation of Christians in his home country of Iraq; the Dames&#8217;s project partner from the \u2018Initiative Christlicher Orient\u2019 (ICO), Stefan Maier, will describe the humanitarian and political situation in Iraq. The lectures will be held in English and German. The speakers and Father Jens Petzold, who works in Suleimaniya, will be available for discussion on this evening. The Dames and the Spiritual Council cordially invite everyone to this evening &#8211; feel free to bring friends and interested people along.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Further information can be found in the invitation below.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Contact person: President of the Dames Mag.
