Luigi Lucheni, the Italian anarchist who assassinated Empress Elisabeth of Austria in 1898, hanged himself in his prison cell on October 19, 1910. A labor history commemoration notes that his preserved head was displayed in formaldehyde at Vienna's Narrenturm until 2000, and that the assassination marked the start of wider unrest.

Why now: The date marks the anniversary of Lucheni's death, prompting historical commemorations on social media.
