Until 1914, he was known as László Batthyány. A devout Roman Catholic, he became known as the "doctor of the poor" and was beatified by the church in 2003. Early lifeLászló Batthyány - Strattmann was born on 28 October 1870, in Dunakiliti, Austria-Hungary, into a very old Hungarian aristocratic family, the sixth of ten brothers. The family moved to Austria in 1876. His childhood was marred by the fact that his father left his family and converted to Protestantism in order to marry another woman.[1] Ladislaus' mother died when he was twelve years old. According to the will of his father, he first prepared himself to care for the vast property of the Batthyánys. He first studied agriculture in Vienna, later also a great number of other subjects, including chemistry, philosophy and music. In this chaotic period in his life, he also fathered an illegitimate daughter.[2] Career and family{{Refimprove section|date=January 2014}}Batthyány became a student of medicine in 1896, and gained his degree of M.D. in 1900.[3] He trained as a general practitioner, but soon specialized in surgery, and later in ophthalmology. This period was also accompanied by a renewal of his religious faith. He met Countess Maria Theresia Coreth zu Coredo und Starkenberg, a devout Roman Catholic, whom he married in Vienna on November 10, 1898. The couple had thirteen children. In 1902 Batthyány opened a private hospital with twenty-five beds in Kittsee, Austria,[3] where he worked as a general practitioner, later specializing as a surgeon and oculist. During the First World War, the hospital was enlarged to take in wounded soldiers for treatment. In 1915, Batthyány and his family moved to the castle of Körmend in Hungary, which he had inherited upon the death of his kinsman Prince Edmund Batthyany-Strattmann in 1914;[3] he also inherited the title of "Prince" (German Fürst, Hungarian herceg) and adopted the additional surname of "Strattmann". At Körmend he continued to practise as a doctor, becoming known for treating poor patients for no payment, which gained him the title of "doctor of the poor". Batthyány turned a wing of the castle into a hospital for ophthalmological patients. DeathAt the age of 60, Batthyány was diagnosed with cancer of the bladder and admitted to the Löw sanatorium in Vienna, Austria. After fourteen months of illness, he died in January 1931. Beatification{{unreferenced section|date=January 2014}}The beatification process was begun in 1944 as a joint effort of the Archbishop of Vienna (Austria) and the bishop of Szombathely (Hungary). The process became forgotten for some time afterwards, before it was taken up again in 1982 due to the initiative of the bishop of Eisenstadt (Austria), Stefan László. On July 11, 1992, László Batthyány-Strattmann was declared a Venerable - a necessary step for beatification. He was beatified on March 23, 2003 by Pope John Paul II. Five years later, on March 23, 2008, the fifth anniversary of his beatification, the Dr. Ladislaus Batthyány-Strattmann confraternity of prayer for the canonization of the poor’s doctor was invested by the archbishop of Vienna Christoph Cardinal Schönborn as a private association, being entitled under the justification of canon law.
