Abstract

The article presents Baron Markus Jabornegg of Javornik and Modrinja vas (von Gamsenegg und Möderndorf) (1837–1910), a highly active member of the Carinthian society in the second half of the nineteenth century, whose reputation transcended the provincial boundaries. His abundant legacy encompasses both his accomplishments in botany and contributions on the mountain world, especially the Karawanks. The said mountain range and most pro­bably also his ancestors link him to the territory of present-day Slovenia.
