Part of the historic estate of Villa Russiz, the mausoleum was commissioned in 1894 by Countess Elvine Ritter de Zahony upon the death of her husband Theodor Karl Leopold Anton de la Tour Voivrènel in 1894. Completed in 1897, atop the hill overlooking the property, the small temple has a square plan with a polygonal apse on which an octagonal drum develops, surmounted by a hemispherical dome, clearly inspired by Italian architecture. Here the count's remains rested until the end of the First World War, before being transferred, next to Countess Elvine, to the park of Villa Patrizia in Treffen, Carinthia. The mausoleum is also remembered as the Chapel of Saint Joseph because, until 1927, a valuable marble statue depicting Saint Joseph by Bertel Thorvaldsen, a pupil of Canova, could be admired there.

After the landslide of November 2025 in Brazzano di Cormons, this section of the trail is totally eroded by heavy rains and difficult to traverse. By bicycle, I strongly recommend avoiding it if it is not at least somewhat repaired.
