Marie-Thérèse, Duchess of Angoulême
Marie-Thérèse Charlotte of France, known as Marie-Thérèse, Duchess of Angoulême, was born on December 19, 1778, in Versailles, France. She was the daughter of King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette. Marie-Thérèse was the only surviving child of her parents, as her siblings died at a young age.
During the French Revolution, Marie-Thérèse and her family were imprisoned in the Temple Tower in Paris. She endured great hardships during this time, witnessing the execution of her parents and living in captivity for several years.
After the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte, Marie-Thérèse was released from captivity and restored to the throne as the Duchess of Angoulême. She married her cousin, Louis Antoine, Duke of Angoulême, in 1799.
Marie-Thérèse was known for her piety and devotion to her family. She had a strong sense of duty and loyalty to the Bourbon monarchy. Throughout her life, she remained a symbol of resilience and grace in the face of adversity.
Marie-Thérèse, Duchess of Angoulême, passed away on October 19, 1851, in Edinburgh, Scotland. She was laid to rest in the Royal Crypt at the Monastery of Kostanjevica in Slovenia.
