In Vienna, Josef Hlávka is mainly remembered as one of the most successful architects and builders of the 1860s. In a period of ten years from the 1860 to the 1870, he designed and built almost 150 buildings. One of the most significant achievements is the Vienna Opera which he built at the request of Emperor Franz Joseph I during the period of 1863-1869. The Emperor was very pleased with it and presented him with a special prize. and Josef Pechar, Marina Hužvárová.
The study illuminates the reign of King of the Romans and Hungary Sigismund of Luxembourg in the North of Veneto (Belluno, Feltre, Serravalle). This region was in Sigismund’s power only for a short time in 1411/12-1420 in connection with his military conflict with the Republic of Venice. Based on for the most part unpublished sources from the archives of the city of Bel- luno, attention is devoted to the people with whom the king entrusted administration of the area (imperial vicars and captains/castellans). It shows that the majority of these people and the garrisons assigned to them, the number of which reaches several dozen or even hundreds, apparently came from the Czech lands mainly in the period 1415-1420. Following step-by-step various aspects of the activity of the royal representatives and their garrisons, frequent conflicts with the local self-government and population stand out. and Ondřej Schmidt.
