Individual evidence

  1. In Austria, nobility does not exist by law (Nobility Repeal Act  1919), so both residents and foreigners are per se non- nobility . In the interwar period there was a men's club, the Association of Catholic Nobles in Austria . Its successor organization was the St. Johanns Club ( sjc.at ), founded in 1954 under the patronage of the Order of Malta , in which founding members of the Cilane were also represented. This club also gathers people who, in the opinion of the European nobility, are bourgeois, so that we cannot speak of a nobility association in the true sense of the word. The Association of Nobles in Austria  (VEÖ), founded in 2005, should be regarded as dissolved.
