Sisi - Empress Elisabeth of Austria

Sisi led a really troubling life, with reoccurring tragedy, the biggest being the loss of her only son. But also her death was a big tragedy. Come and find out more about her life!

No other empress is as famous as Sisi. After marrying Emperor Franz Joseph, Sisi moved to the capital city of Vienna, the residence of the imperial family. Many places are living reminders of the tragic monarch.

Above all, of course, the two residences where visitors can walk so wonderfully in Sisi's footsteps: Schönbrunn Palace and the Imperial Palace. When the keen traveler Sisi was in Vienna, she lived here with her husband, the children and a giant royal household. Schönbrunn Palace Park is also home to the Imperial Coach Collection; an area of the exhibition is dedicated specially to the Austrian empress.

The waxwork they have of her at Madame Tussaud‘s is absolutely uncanny. Looks like a real person.

I agree that Sisi loved her husband. She used to write him long affectionate letters even after 40 years of a troubled marriage. Only she didn't share his physical passion. Perhaps Sisi was asexual or perhaps she was deeply hurt that she was so cared for only because of her good looks. It seems that Franz Joseph never tried to understand her... But still, he also cared for her and loved her in his naive way. No need to judge them, no one is perfect.

I've been to Vienna many times and I regret not seeing these historic places for myself. Wonderful city with an interesting history.

I feel for Sisi. She had a hard life, on the outside was beautiful and literally dripping with diamonds at times. But so broken on the inside. All royals had to give up so much and could never appear weak or human like must of been so hard. I can relate on the loss of a child. Even with other children a mother is always heartbroken. I feel a strong connection to her. May god rest her beautiful soul.

She's really beautiful and stunning😘😍

[tracyfeldstein]

Can I take a minute to give props to Adia Trischler's presentation... and I want her sweater.

[Photoshoplilli]

I do wonder why her "stunning figure" keeps getting praised when she clearly had a severe eating disorder, fasting, starving herself, over-exercising, then binging. She was anemic at some point because she ate too little. like... she was anorexic and it gets glorified everywhere.

[texgal]

she was beautiful . Didn't look snobby like some royalty

[ddiesel]

ive been to both Hofburg and Schonbrun. very impressive. I was mesmerized by Sisi and wanted to take many photos. Unfortunately, it was very disappointing that were not allowed to take pictures or videos.

you are lucky though

Sisi: anorexic, cocaine user, buries her depression into exercising extensively
Reporter: she always took great care of her health

[catspaw]

They didn't have a good marriage Sisi never loved her husband she hated her new life but she made the best of it & became beloved by the people of Austria.

Me impresiona. Me fascina todo lo que tenga que ver con sissi. De la familia absburgo

[valeridomokus]

Ej i meni se sviđa ispred dvorca . 👍👍👍👍🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤❤❤❤❤👑👑

[heikeweigand]

This 'documentation' is full of mistakes: In the first years of her marriage to Franz Joseph, yes, she loved him. But if she became a real woman (not this naiv little child) she don't love him! She had no happy marriage with him! And...she was murdered at the age of 60!!! She was a hypochondriac. Sisi was very intelligent. And...she had no good no beautiful teeth like so much members of the 'Wittelsbach' family! She was born on 24th December 1837 and died on 10th September 1898. If you wanna do a documentation...please not with so much mistakes.

[sabrinanascimento]

I would have liked If I was named after Sisi since I am like Sisi . I had long hair like her.

[limrosemary]

so much beauty + chance tat brought the good life .... + love...wealth and internal glamour ., , yet a ruin internally ... wat wld modern psychologists hv to say ?

[dangkimtuyen]

Ich war letzte Monat im Schloss Schönbrunn ❤❤❤❤

[belbras]

"Very tall"??? she was just 1, 72 meters. Maybe tall for the standards back then but not "very tall".

[angelwings]

Wouldn’t the speaker mean Sissi led a “troubled” life ? She kept saying “troubling”, didn’t sound right.

Look it up, Sisi's great nephew Karl: : “Dallas Texas Blessed Emperor Karl Symposium”: This is the centennial of Blessed Karl’s death 2022. THERE IS A BIG CONFERENCE IN DALLAS, 15 OCT 2022 ON BLESSED KARL & ZITA. With Bishop Athanasius Schneider, ambassador Eduard von Habsburg; BL.Karl’s granddaughter, author Mr. Charles Coulombe etc.
