In a stylized death room, a mannequin of Laudon lies on his deathbed. Like the actual room where the general died, this room faces the square, and is complemented by dim lighting to add just the right atmosphere.

From history
In the early 1790s, there was a hint of a new conflict with Prussia. Laudon was appointed commander-in-chief of the Austrian armies, and the late emperor's successor, Leopold II, promoted him to generalissimo. On 16 June, Laudon went to his troops in Nový Jičín, from where he directed the preparations in case of war. There he fell seriously ill and died on 14 July 1790. His body was transported to Vienna and subsequently deposited on the Hadersdorf estate.

"I am rapidly approaching the end of my life and will no longer have the good fortune to see Your Majesty's face," he wrote from Nový Jičín to Emperor Leopold II. Laudon was stricken with pneumonia on 12 July and was visited by friends the following day. On 14 July, the commander slept for a long time. He thanked the people of Nový Jičín, whom he had heard were praying for him. Towards evening, shortly before seven o'clock, he awoke and asked to have the pillow under his back raised. He raised himself up, and at that moment he died.
