Children:
Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI had four children:
Marie Thérèse Charlotte: Born on Decmber 19, 1778 at Versailles. She lived in exile after the death of her family. Marie married her cousin Louis-Antoine, Duke of Angouleme in 1799. She died from pneumonia on October 19, 1851 in Vienna, Austria. Marie Thérèse is buried at the Franciscan monastery in Kostanjevica, Slovenia.

Louis Joseph Xavier Francois: Born on October 22, 1781. Died at the age of seven on June 4, 1789 of consumption which is known today as tuberculosis.

Louis Charles aka Louis XVII: Born March 27, 1785. Died on June 8, 1795 while alone in prison. He had been brutalized as a prisoner.

Sophie Béatrix: Born in 1786, Sophie died as an infant just before turning one year old in 1787.


Her son Louis Charles (now King Louis XVII) was kept in a dark, filthy cell until he died of tuberculosis in 1795

Their oldest son and heir, the dauphin, was dying of a crippling, agonizing hereditary disease and would die in June. Besides her miscarriages, this was the second child dead; their second daughter had died in 1786. And now amid this grief, the couple faced the crisis that now threatened their rule, which would bring still further tragedies to this family.


Marie Antoinette's daughter, Madame Royale, survived the revolution. She became the duchesse d'Angouleme and lived to see the reigns of her uncles Louis XVIII and Charles X. She had no children.
