!!!Taubstummenunterricht
Schools for the Deaf and Dumb, introduced in Vienna at the order of
Joseph II in 1779, following the example of similar schools in Paris;
other such schools were later established at Linz (Upper Austria,
1812), Mils (Tirol, 1830) and Graz (Styria, 1831); soon instruction
was also introduced for persons with multiple disabilities. They have
been replaced by Sonderschulen for auditively challenged children.
