About this person

Born in 1724 as a princess of Poland and Saxony, daughter of Augustus III and an Austrian archduchess, Maria Amalia married the future Charles III on 19 June 1738 and became Queen of Naples and Sicily. Over the next twenty-one years she commissioned the Caserta Palace and other ambitious projects while raising seven children who survived to adulthood out of thirteen born. Her influence on state affairs was widely recognized. When Charles ascended the Spanish throne on 10 August 1759, she became Queen of Spain - a title she held for just over a year before her death on 27 September 1760.
