Helene Lecher (née von Rosthorn; 8 September 1865 – 4 October 1929) was an Austrian women's rights activist and philanthropist. During World War I she served as a nurse and later as a hospital kitchen administrator, establishing nutrition protocols for patients. Born into a well-to-do family in Vienna, she was tutored at home, learning English, French, German and Italian, as well as art and music. After both her parents died when she was young, she moved with a sister to Prague around 1890 to live with an older brother. There, she was involved with the German School Association and participated in cultural events. She married a physics professor and had a daughter in 1899 but continued to perform in theater and sing at events.
