Scientific paper

Driven by her personal interest, Baroness Matt erected a private
observatory in Vienna, bought and ordered precise instruments and
carried out astrometric and geodetic observations at several places in
Austria and in western Bohemia. Unfortunately her activities were
hampered by the Napoleonic wars and were cut short by her early death.
