Josef Wilhelm Freiherr von Löschner or in Czech Josef Vilém z Löschneru (May 7, 1809 – April 19, 1888) was an Austrian physician born in Kaaden, Bohemia. He studied at Gymnasium Kadaň. In 1834 he received his medical doctorate at Prague, and several years later he obtained his habilitation in balneology (1841). Later on, he became a professor at the University of Prague, where in 1862-63 he served as university rector. In 1862 he was appointed ''Landesmedizinalrat'', and in 1865 became ''Hofrat'' (councilor) and a personal physician to Franz Joseph I of Austria. A foundation arranged by Löschner resulted in the creation of the ''Franz Joseph Kinderhospital'' in Prague. Löschner is remembered for his work in the field of balneology. He advocated the curative properties of health spas, and wrote numerous articles promoting the spas of Bohemia. These publications were instrumental in making Bohemian spas a popular tourist destination, particularly the resorts at Karlsbad and Bílina, which were regularly visited by members of European royalty. == Written works == * ''Der Gießhübler Sauerbrunn'', 1846 - Giebhubler-Sauerbrunn. * ''Die Versendung der Karlsbader Mineralquellen'', 1847 - The dispatch of the Karlsbad mineral springs. * ''Das Saidschitzer Bitterwasser'', 1853 - Bitter waters of Saidschitz. * ''Der Sauerbrunnen zu Bilin'', 1859 - Bílinská kyselka healing mineral water Bílina. * ''Johannisbad im böhmischen Riesengebirge'', 1859 - Johannisbad in the Riesengebirge Mountains. * ''Beiträge zu Balneologie aus den Kurorten Böhmens'', 1862 - Contributions to balneology from the health resorts in Bohemia. * ''Balneologische Skizze von Tetschen-Bodenbach'', 1862 - Balneological sketch of Tetschen Bodenbach. * ''Die Eisenwässer von Königswart'', 1865 - The Ice-Cold waters of Königswart), 1865 * ''Teplitz und die benachbarten Kurorte'', 1867 - Teplitz and neighbouring health resorts. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Josef von Löschner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
