I am republishing photographs I took on July 3, 2009 a few months after the 200th anniversary of the Battle. My wife Lindsey and I were touring Austria and I took a side-trip to Aspern and Essling whilst staying for a few wonderful days in Vienna.
The trip was made possible by the excellent private guide I had for the day, Erich Kammerleithner. Erich made all the arrangements for me to gain access to the Aspern Village Museum and the Granary Museum in Essling. I highly recommend Erich who also gave us an excellent private tour of Schonbrunn Palace.
