Archduke of Further Austria
Ferdinand Charles (17 May 1628 – 30 December 1662) was the Archduke of
Further Austria , including
Tyrol , from 1646 to 1662.
As the son of Archduke
Leopold V and
Claudia de' Medici , he succeeded his father upon the latter's death in 1632, under his mother's regency. He took over his mother's governatorial duties when he came of age in 1646. To finance his extravagant living style, he sold goods and entitlements. For example, he wasted the exorbitant sum which
France had to pay to the
Tyrolean
Habsburgs for the cession of their fiefs west of the
Rhine (
Alsace ,
Sundgau and
Breisach ). He also fixed the border to
Graubünden in 1652.

Ferdinand Charles was an absolutist ruler, did not call any
diet after 1648 and had his
chancellor
Wilhelm Biener executed illegally in 1651 after a secret trial. On the other hand, he was a lover of music:
Italian opera was performed in his court.
Marriage, children and death
Ferdinand Charles married
Anna de' Medici . She was a daughter of
Cosimo II de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany and
Maria Magdalena of Austria († 1631) . They had three children:
He died in
Kaltern .
