title: [The Second Gynaecological Department of Vienna University (author's transl)].
abstract: 70 years ago, on October 21st, 1908, the new building of the Second Gynaecological Department of Vienna University--a fine example of Jugendstil--was opened. This jubilee takes place at the time when the whole structure of the university clinics is undergoing fundamental change, the new "Allgemeines Krankenhaus" is under construction and while the Jugendstil is enjoying new popularity. An attempt is made to outline the lives and work of the outstanding representatives of the Second Gynaecological Department of Vienna University and the history of the building.
