Franz Seraph von Dietrichstein

Franz Seraph von Dietrichstein (1570–1636) was a Habsburg cardinal, Bishop of Olomouc and the first Prince of Dietrichstein. Born in Madrid to an imperial diplomat, he was made cardinal in 1599 and, as Bishop of Olomouc from 1600, led the Counter-Reformation in Moravia. President of the Privy Council from 1607, he crowned Matthias and Ferdinand II kings of Bohemia in 1611 and 1617.

Exiled by the rebel estates in 1619, he returned after White Mountain as governor of Moravia and promoted its reconversion. Raised to hereditary imperial prince in 1624, he named his nephew Maximilian as his heir and died at Brno in 1636.
