About Eleonore Charlotte of Württemberg-Montbéliard

Lived 1656 – 1743 (aged 86).

Eleonore Charlotte of Württemberg-Montbéliard (20 November 1656 – April 1743) was by marriage Duchess of Oels-Württemberg.

Life Charlotte Eleanor was a daughter of the Duke George II of Württemberg-Montbéliard (1626–1699) from his marriage to Anne (1624–1680), the daughter of Gaspard III de Coligny.
