Marie Antoinette

 

Welcome to

Marie Antoinette

Website

Marie Antoinette  was born November 2, 1755 in Vienna, Austria. She was born into a luxury life and her marriage to Louis XVI was deemed the most spectacular. Yet, her story was a tragic one. Within a few years, Marie Antoinette went from the most well known queen of France to the woman who was largely blamed for the French revolution.

Marie Antoinette was the fifteenth child of Francis Stephen I and Maria Theresa, Emperor and Empress of the Holy Roman Empire. Her beauty and appearance may have been overstated, so did her personality and behaviour. There were many rumors spread by Marie Antoinette 's enemies.

This Marie Antoinette website tells the story of Marie Antoinette from her birth to execution. The website focuses on many important people in Marie Antoinette 's life such as her mother, the Empress Maria Theresa, who some pinned blame on for Marie Antoinette 's tragedy. Had Maria Theresa prepared Marie Antoinette more of a how to run a country, things might have turned out differently for Marie Antoinette.

We discuss Maria Theresa in quite a bit of a detail since she had great influence on Marie Antoinette 's life. The treaty of Versailles which Maria Theresa signed also came into play. The treaty of Versailles marked the event that would changed Marie Antoinette 's life forever. We touched on the subject of the French revolution and a few characters involved such as Axel Fersen whom many think had an affair with Marie Antoinette.
