Maria Anna Victoria of Savoy (11 September 1683 – 11 October 1763) was the daughter of Prince Louis Thomas of Savoy, Count of Soissons, and Olympia Mancini.
Biography
Her uncle was Prince Eugene of Savoy, the famous general. She was styled Mademoiselle de Soissons prior to her marriage.
Upon Eugene's death, Maria Anna Victoria inherited his estate in Austria, of which she then proceeded to quickly sell off at cut rate prices. His mansions, art collections, wartime medals, and the sword given to him by Queen Anne of England for his part in the War of the Spanish Succession were sold; nothing was spared.
She was married for a short time to the Austrian Imperial Quartermaster, Prince Joseph of Saxe-Hildburghausen, but it ended in divorce. The couple married on 17 April 1738 and 1757 they divorced having had no children.
She then lived for a time in France, and eventually died in Turin, Italy, in 1763 at the age of 80.
