I'm sure that military schools existed in Austria at least by the 18th Century, although I have few details at this time. Some of the early choir schools were run somewhat like military schools with army uniforms.
Several movies have been set in Austrian and German military academies. One interesting movie, Colonel Redl opens in an Austrian military academy in the latter years of the 19th century. There are two uniforms worn by cadets: a dress outfit with silver buttons and a simpler everyday outfit.
