LOUIS XVII

LOUIS XVII

1785-1795

Louis XVII was the son of King Louis XVI of France and Marie Antoinette. I read a book called The Lost King of France by Deborah Cadbury (2022); it was one of the saddest books I’ve read. The French Revolutionists abused Louis XVII in every sense in the word and he sadly died from disease and mistreatment at the age of 10.

            Born Louis Charles at the Palace of Versailles, he became heir to the throne when his older brother died in 1789, a few weeks before the French Revolution started. In 1789 the royal family were imprisoned in the Tuileries Palace, Paris. In 1793 Louis XVI was executed, and Louis XVII became king in the eyes of royalists.

            Louis XVII was taken away from his mother and was imprisoned in a cell and tortured daily. The Revolutionists made him sign a charge of sexual molestation against his mother and his mother was executed in 1793.

            In 1794, the Revolutionists had Louis XVII placed in a dark cell which was much like a cage for a wild animal. Food was passed to him through the bars and he continued to live in dirty unhygienic surroundings. He was neglected, secluded, and lived in absolute silence. The only people he saw were the guards who abused him.

            He was visited by three commissioners who couldn’t get a word out of him and observed that the child was seriously ill. Louis died alone on 8 June 1795, aged 10, from scrofula associated with tuberculosis. An autopsy was conducted and the doctor was shocked at the sight of all the abusive scars all over his body.

            Louis was buried in Sainte Marguerite cemetery but wasn’t given any marker. His heart was smuggled out and was kept in a crystal vase at the royal crypt at Saint Denis Basilica the burial place of his family. In 2000, DNA testing was conducted which proved that the heart was his.  

            The only surviving member of the royal family was Louis’s older sister Marie-Therese who married her cousin in 1799 and moved to England. She died of pneumonia in 1851, aged 72. The next king of France was his Louis XVIIs uncle, Louis XVIII from 1814-1824.

“Reminiscences.”  A portrait in the style of the 18th Century depicting Queen Marie-Antoinette of France with two of her four children (only two survived the beginning of the Revolution); Marie-Thérèse Charlotte, or Madame Royale was the only one of the four who survived into adulthood, her youngest brother, Louis-Charles, the Dauphin (after his elder brother died in 1789) having died in the Temple Prison from neglect and abuse. Surrounding mother and children are mementos of Marie-Antoinette's life at Versailles. Along the left are hangings from the Cabinet de la Méridienne, which is currently being restored to how it looked in 1789. Along the right, filling the back-ground is the Petit Trianon which was her escape from the rigid protocol of the Court of Versailles. At the bottom right-hand corner, a table with a basket of oranges scattered with orange blossoms which was one of the fruits that the Queen had planted in the grounds of Versailles. Lastly, at the top right-hand corner is the Queen's cypher bordered with flowers. I had a lot of fun with this one. ^_^

"The execution of Marie Antoinette and the treatment of her family is nothing for France to be proud of. Her punishment is the first evidence of a revolution run amok. The spirit of her trial was public vengeance and it can barely be considered a legal proceeding."

Very excited about the renewed interest in Jean-Baptiste Cléry, the only personal servant to remain with King Louis XVI and his family in the tower of the Temple Prison.

“Louis-Charles (son of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette) died on 8 June 1795.

Following a tradition of preserving royal hearts, Louis-Charles's heart was removed and smuggled out during the autopsy by the overseeing physician, Philippe-Jean Pelletan. Thus, the heart of Louis-Charles was not interred with the rest of the body. Dr. Pelletan stored the smuggled heart in distilled wine in order to preserve the heart. However, after 8 to 10 years the distilled wine had evaporated, and the heart was further kept dry.[9]

After the Restoration in 1815, Dr. Pelletan attempted to give the heart to Louis-Charles's uncle, Louis XVIII, however he refused because he could not bring himself to believe that was the heart of his nephew.” 

"here I brought you this heart it's your nephew's."

"What? Oh...sacre bleu, no! No, thank you."

"but it is for you. it's your nephew's"

"That’s creepy, sir. That's my nephew's heart? Nah, I don't buy that. It can't be his. He died forever ago!"

"i've kept it fresh for you for 20 years"

"Yeep. That's the how long it has been, please, uh, please get that weird old heart away from me?"

"it's for you. it's a gift"

"I don't want it."

"i saved it for you"

"I do not want it. You know what? You can have it! Or bury it or something! I don't care. Please, don't come back here. Ever. With or without my loved ones' organs. Thank you, so much though!, Appreciate it so much! Uh, Bye!!!!"

".....what am i supposed to do with this 10-year-old prince's vital organ?"

“Dr. Pelletan then donated the heart to the Archbishop of Paris, Hyacinthe-Louis de Quélen.”
