Biography
She was born in Vienna on 27 January 1892 to Archduke Franz Salvator of Austria and his wife, Archduchess Marie Valerie, youngest daughter of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria.[1] She married at Niederwallsee on 19 September 1912 Georg Count von Waldburg zu Zeil und Hohenems (1878–1955). The marriage was one of love and not a political marriage. Georg von Waldburg had no money or property, and had been hired as a tutor for her brothers.[2]
They had four children, three daughters and a son:
- Countess Marie Valerie von Waldburg-Zeil (28 June 1913 – 8 July 2011), married Archduke Georg of Austria, Prince of Tuscany (1905–1952) in 1936. He was the younger son of Archduke Peter Ferdinand of Austria and his wife, Princess Maria Cristina of Bourbon-Two Sicilies.
- Countess Klementine von Waldburg-Zeil (5 October 1914 – 24 September 1941), unmarried and without issue.
- Countess Elisabeth von Waldburg-Zeil (23 February 1917 – 18 June 1979), unmarried and without issue.
- Count Franz Josef von Waldburg-Zeil (7 March 1927 – 31 August 2022), married Countess Priscilla of Schönborn-Wiesentheid in 1956. They had seven children.
Archduchess Elisabeth Franziska was a painter for some time. She died, aged 38, of pneumonia on 29 January 1930. Her widower remarried nearly two years later, on 29 December 1931, to her younger sister Gertrud.
