Inschrift
In diesem Hause / starb am 31.5.1809 / der bei Apsern schwerverwundete / Marschall / Jean Lannes / Herzog von Montebello / Bezirksmuseum Simmering
Geschichte
Bereits 1955 wurde eine Gedenktafel für Marschall Lannes errichtet, und zwar am Haus 11, Mailergasse 5, das 1989 abgerissen wurde. Da schon länger Zweifel daran bestanden, ob das Haus Nr. 5 der korrekte Anbringungsort war, wurden Forschungen angestellt, die das Haus Mailergasse 12 als Sterbehaus des Marschalls bestätigen. Da die ursprüngliche Tafel aus den 1950er Jahren Anfang der 1990er Jahre bereits stark verwittert war, wurde eine neue Tafel angefertigt.
Enthüllung der ersten Tafel am 11. Juni 1955.

History
A commemorative plaque for Marshal Lannes was already erected in 1955, namely on house 11, Mailergasse 5, which was demolished in 1989. Since doubts had existed for some time as to whether house No. 5 was the correct location, research was carried out which confirmed house Mailergasse 12 as the marshal's place of death. As the original plaque from the 1950s was already heavily weathered in the early 1990s, a new plaque was made.
Unveiling of the first plaque on 11 June 1955.
