Born in Vienna in 1755. Daughter of Emperor Francois 1st and Marie-Therese, she married in 1770 Louis XVI, who was at that time Dauphin. After the arrival of her husband (1774), Marie-Antoinette took a great influence on his mind. The Convention caused her to be arrested and imprisoned at the Temple, and then at the Conciergerie. During her captivity and appearance before the Revolutionary Court, she showed great courage. She was executed on October 16, 1793.
