The dispute between the City of Vienna and the Rothschild family moves into the municipal council. NEOS Vienna CEO Christoph Wiederkehr calls for an independent foundation and fund authority.
The Vienna State Parliament will shortly be discussing the dispute between the city and a member of the Rothschild family in a special session. The NEOS has submitted a corresponding application, as announced to the APA. An appointment for the meeting has not yet been made.

Rosenhügel Neurological Center in Vienna
The legally somewhat complex dispute flared up after New York family descendant Geoffrey R. Hoguet asked the city to restore the former board of trustees to its original form. It is about the foundation founded in 1907, which the Neurological Center Rosenhügel, which still exists today, has established – the “Nathaniel Freiherr von Rothschild’sche Foundation”.
–
In 1956 the Vienna City Council was used as an administrative body. The Rothschild descendant now wants to enforce the dismissal of the magistrate as administrator of the foundation and the reinstatement of an independent board of trustees – in which representatives of the family also sat.

Tax money put into the company
The city, on the other hand, is of the opinion that the foundation’s purpose will be fully fulfilled – and that the facility has been rebuilt after the war. After the takeover, the operation was only possible thanks to massive donations with tax money, was also recently insured at a court hearing.
–
According to NEOS, the purpose of the foundation is “apparently negligent”: “We also see an absolute incompatibility in the fact that the city stipulates the foundation rules by law, which are then enforced by the administration. Here we call for an independent foundation and fund authority” , the Viennese NEOS boss Christoph Wiederkehr asked.
