  • Empress Sissi's time in Venice would today be a media sensation. But in the second half of the 19th century it hardly made the news. But why would an Austrian Empress choose to stay in Venice over her native Vienna in 1861, when it Venice was such an anti-Austrian city...?
    From Elizabeth II to Cleopatra, Real Royalty peels back the curtain to give a glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential families in the world, with new full length documentaries posted every week covering the monarchies of today and all throughout history.

      RIGHT!! And she didn’t even “escape” she was told to go their by a doctor because they believed the weather was better for her and even when she got to Venice she was still sick and her health would fluctuate.

      Documentaries and biographies have been dumbing down the population in past 20 years .
      It started when Lucy worsley turned these Documentaries into dress up sessions instead of well researched Documentaries.
      FYI there are 10s of Documentaries on the social life of the Tudors but not 1 famous 1 about the birth of the Tudor navy , monetary policy, lives of average ppl etc .
      Most of these videos are = to historical gossip nothing more , with the speaker trying to get as much attention as possible for themselves.

Empress Elisabeth was a princess of Bavaria known by her family as "Sissi" until she married Emperor Franz Joseph and became empress of Vienna. And of course her mom Ludovika was the twin sister of ArchDuchess Sophie of Austria.
