Abstrakt     On the 200th anniversary of Edward Jen- ner's discovery of vaccination and its subsequent application in the Habsburg monarchy the authors draw the reader's attention to Vinzenz Kern (1760-1829) who was an important personality in Austrian medicine at the end of the l8th and the beginning of the l9th century. A period of his life which he spent in Ljubljana was devoted to the introduction of vaccination among Slovenian popula-tion, which he achieved in spite of strong opposition.
