Charles Joseph (German: Karl Joseph) (7 August 1649 – 27 January 1664) was an Archduke of Austria and Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights (1662–64). He was also the Bishop of Olmütz, and Breslau, Passau.

Life

Charles Joseph was born on 7 August 1649, in Vienna to parents Ferdinand III and Maria Leopoldine. Destined for a life in the clergy, he was appointed as the Bishop of Passau and Olmütz at the young age of 13, following in the footsteps of his uncle Archduke Leopold Wilhelm.[1][2] He also became the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order.[3][4]

Due to his youth, Charles Joseph was unable to attain higher orders as a bishop. He passed away at the age of 14 on 27 January 1664, in Linz, Austria, due to exhaustion from battling an illness.[5] His remains were transported by ship to Vienna, where he was laid to rest in the Imperial Crypt on 21 February 1664.[3]
