Husarentempel, War memorial on Föhrenberg hill in Mödling, Austria.

The Husarentempel stands at 485 meters elevation, featuring stone columns and architectural elements that form a circular memorial structure.

Built in 1813 by architect Joseph Kornhäusel, this memorial replaced an earlier wooden structure that was destroyed by storms in 1812.

The memorial contains the tombs of five soldiers who died during the Battle of Aspern, marking it as the first war memorial in Austria.

Multiple hiking trails lead to the memorial, which serves as a viewpoint offering clear views of Vienna and the surrounding Vienna Woods.

Prince Johann I of Liechtenstein commissioned the structure between 1809 and 1811, designating it as the Temple of Glory of War.
