unusual facts about Revolutions of 1848 in the Habsburg areas



Eduard Kaiser

Enthused by the ideas of the revolution, in 1848 Kaiser joined the Academic Legion - during this time he made portraits of almost all the main figures of the March Revolution (Josef Radetzky, Franz Schuselka, Hans Kudlich Adolf Fischhof, Carl Giskra).

Matija Ban

Shortly before the Revolutions of 1848 in the Habsburg areas, Matija Ban was sent from Belgrade on special missions to Novi Sad, Karlovci, Zagreb, Zadar, Dubrovnik and Cetinje.

Șiria

In 1849, the village was part of the Kingdom of Hungary and it was a venue for the Revolutions of 1848 in the Habsburg areas, including the Surrender at Világos: on 13 August 1849 the Hungarian army led by Artúr Görgey surrendered to the Russian general Rüdiger on the field below Șiria Castle, which brought an end to the Hungarian Revolution of 1848.
