Am Modenapark, named in 1916 after Archduchess Beatrix d’Este (1750-1829); through her marriage she brought her father’s inheritance, the duchies of Modena and Reggio, as well as her mother’s inheritance, the duchies of Massa and Carrara, into the House of Habsburg and became the founder of the Austria-Este line. In 1812 she had a palace built in the suburb of Landstrasse and a large garden laid out. The palace was demolished in 1916, parts of the garden now exist as Modena Park, and an interwar ensemble, the Modena Park district, was built around this park in the 1920s and 1930s. Beatrixgasse is also named after the Archduchess.

 

 

I visited "Am Modenapark" on February 29th 2024 and had a bit of an emotional day. Missed my Dad. Taking pictures always helps though.
