## Bio

Maria Anna Josepha Antonia was born 6 October 1738, second child of Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor, and Maria Theresa, Queen of Hungary and Bohemia. For a time she stood as heiress presumptive, but ill health and physical disability shaped a different course. She did not marry. In 1766 she became abbess of the Theresian Institution of Noble Ladies in Prague, then relocated to Klagenfurt, where she remained until her death on 19 November 1789. Her palace there, the Mariannengasse, now serves as the Episcopal Palace.
