Princely House von Dietrichstein (extinct 1964)
I have been searching this forum about this family and found nothing :-(
Any of you that can share any information about this family? |
I have found in Wikipedia a very ample article about the noble family of von Dietrichstein.
|
There is a shortage of information about this family.
They were made Princes of the Holy Roman Empire in 17th century...In 19th century Prince von Dietrichstein zu Nikolsburg was a first cousin of Queen Victoria,while Queen Victoria herself descended from Dietrichstein-Hollenburg line...apart from those little things I don't know much about this family! |

I have now read at Royal Musings that Princess Beatrice,after Henry's death,wanted to marry her cousin Albert,who was a brother of Prince von Dietrichstein and that Queen Victoria was very fond of the family as well as Prince Albert von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha,whose favorite cousin was Prince Alexander von Dietrichstein,at the time of his birth Count von Mensdorf-Pouilly...
But,the marriage was not to be since he was a Catholic and by marrying him,Beatrice would lose her place in succession... |
Johanna Beatrix von Dietrichstein-Nikolsburg was the wife of Karl Eusebius, Prince of Liechtenstein. |
