168 A detailed description of the preparation and implementation of the manoeuvres is given in the mem-
oirs of Major General Alfred Jansa : Ein österreichischer General gegen Hitler, edited by Peter Broucek
(Vienna/Cologne/Weimar, 2011), 213–220.
169 The most detailed study of the assassination, and one that is well supported by sources, is : Friedrich
Würthle, Die Spur führt nach Belgrad. Die Hintergründe des Dramas von Sarajewo 1914 (Vienna/Mu-
nich/Zürich, 1975). As a supplement to this by the same author : Dokumente zum Sarajewoprozess. Ein
Quellenbericht (= Mitteilungen des Österreichischen Staatsarchivs, supplementary volume 9, Vienna,
1978).

173 Vladimir Dedijer, Die Zeitbombe. Sarajewo 1914 (Vienna/Frankfurt am Main/Zürich, 1967), 532–535.
Dedijer describes the murder of Sultan Murad on the day before the battle. However, in the Serbian
record, the event occurs following the battle. In reality, the record is probably so inaccurate that its de-
piction of events is questionable. 28 June is now no longer a public holiday in Serbia.
174 See the comprehensive study : Rudolf Jeřábek, Potiorek. Ein General im Schatten von Sarajevo (Graz/
Vienna/Cologne, 1991).
175 The Duchess of Hohenberg died immediately following the attack. The Archduke was brought dying to
the Konak, the residence of the regional commander, and laid down on a couch. Several doctors attempted
to keep him alive, though in vain. Franz Ferdinand died within several minutes. The couch and the bed
on which the body of Sophie von Hohenberg was laid, as well as the car in which the couple were being
driven, are on display in the Military History Museum in Vienna. Claims occasionally made that the
Graef & Stift car that had belonged to Count Franz Harrach had already been involved in accidents be-
fore the incident, and that afterwards it was also used, for example in an automobile race, in which another
fatal accident occurred, before the bewitched car was destroyed by American bombs at the Vienna Arsenal
in 1944, are pure nonsense. The uniform worn by Franz Ferdinand was saved for the couple’s children,
brought to Artstetten and transferred to the Military Museum on loan. Other items of clothing and per-
sonal belongings, together with the weapons carried by the assassins seized by the police were taken to the
president of the Marianist congregation and head of the orphanage in Sarajevo opened by the Duchess of
Hohenberg at the end of June 1914, Anton Puntigam. In 1918, he brought these items to his convent in
Vienna. In 2004, they were also transferred to the Military History Museum from the convent.
