#1437 Vienna Central Cemetery.
There is a memorial dedicated to Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler, better known as Hedy Lamarr.
Her ashes were scattered in the woods.

There's a pic online of the tug being placed on a low loader for shipping out to Tahiti.

One of the locations on earth which lives up to its reputation.
