Fürstenberg-Pürglitz Explained
Fürstenberg-Pürglitz was a noble family hailing from southwestern Baden-Württemberg, Germany, which was seated at Křivoklát Castle in Bohemia. Fürstenberg-Pürglitz emerged as a non-ruling branch of the princely House of Fürstenberg in 1762 following the death of Prince Joseph Wilhelm Ernst, and it inherited the principality after the princely line became extinct in 1804. Two years later in 1806, the principality was mediatised to Austria, Baden, Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, and Württemberg.
