Archduchess Maria Anna Isabelle Epiphanie Eugenie Gabriele of Austria, full German name: Maria Anna Isabelle Epiphanie Eugenie Gabriele, Erzherzogin von Österreich (6 January 1882, Linz, Upper Austria, Austria-Hungary; 25 February 1940, Lausanne, Vaud, Switzerland) was a member of the Teschen branch of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine and an Archduchess of Austria and Princess of Bohemia, Hungary, and Tuscany by birth. Through her marriage to Prince Elias of Bourbon-Parma (later the pretender Duke of Parma), Maria Anna was also a member of the House of Bourbon-Parma and a Princess of Bourbon-Parma.

Early life

Maria Anna was the second child and daughter of Archduke Friedrich, Duke of Teschen and his wife Princess Isabella of Croÿ.[1]

Marriage and issue

Maria Anna married Prince Elias of Bourbon-Parma, the eldest son of Robert I, Duke of Parma, and his first wife, Princess Maria Pia of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, on 25 May 1903 in Vienna.

Elias gave Maria Anna an engagement ring with a oval ruby surrounded by diamonds.[2] Following her marriage, Maria Anna amassed a significant collection of jewellery, both as wedding gifts and through later gifts and inheritances. Emperor Franz Josef gave her a diamond tiara made by Kochert, the royal jewelers in Vienna.[3] Maria Anna produced an inventory of these jewels in 1932. The collection was auctioned by Sotheby's in November 2018.[4]

Maria Anna and Elias had eight children:

  • Princess Elisabetta (17 March 1904 – 13 June 1983); she died unmarried.
  • Prince Carlo (22 September 1905 – 26 September 1912); he died of poliomyelitis.
  • Princess Maria Francesca (5 September 1906 – 1994); she died unmarried.
  • Robert Hugo, Duke of Parma (7 August 1909 – 25 November 1974); he died unmarried.
  • Prince Francesco (14 June 1913 – 29 May 1959); he died unmarried.
  • Princess Giovanna (8 July 1916 – 1 November 1949); she never married and was killed in a shooting accident in La Toledana, Spain.
  • Princess Alicia (13 November 1917 – 28 March 2017); she married Infante Alfonso, Duke of Calabria.
  • Princess Maria Cristina (7 June 1925 – 1 September 2009); she died unmarried.[5]
