!!!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 They have been replaced by Sonderschulen for auditively challenged children. %%language [Back to the Austrian Version|AEIOU/Taubstummenunterricht|class='wikipage austrian'] %% [{FreezeArticle author='AEIOU' template='Lexikon_1995_englisch'}] [{ALLOW view All}][{ALLOW comment All}][{ALLOW edit FreezeAdmin}]
