List of members of the Austrian manor house

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Austrian mansion , the first chamber of the Reichsrat, consisted of the following categories of members :

  1. from the appointed princes of the imperial house (i.e. the archdukes of legal age)
  2. from the archbishops and those bishops who had princely rank
  3. from members of the "wealthy local nobility" (i.e. the heads of those noble families to whom the emperor had bestowed the "hereditary imperial council dignity")
  4. from Austrian citizens who were appointed by the emperor for service to the state or church, science or art for life (in 1907 it was legally stipulated that this category had to include at least 150 and a maximum of 170 members; no minimum or maximum number had previously been determined since 1861 ).
