Philipp Joseph zu Salm-Kyrburg
Philipp Joseph Anton Prince of Salm-Kyrburg , also Philipp Joseph of Salm-Neufville-Leuze (* July 21, 1709 , † June 7, 1779 in Paris ), was the 2nd Prince of Salm-Kyrburg and as such an Imperial Prince in the Holy Roman Empire .
Life
Philipp Joseph, offspring of the Upper Salm line of the Salm family , was a grandson of General Karl Florentin zu Salm and one of two sons of the Wild and Rhine Count Heinrich Gabriel zu Salm-Kyrburg (also Salm- Leuze , 1674-1716) and Marie Thérèse de Croÿ (1678–1713), daughter of Philippe François Albert de Croÿ, marquis de Warneck (1645–1710). At the age of 15 he enrolled in an Austrian infantry regiment. On August 12, 1742 he married his niece Maria Theresia Josepha von Horn (1725–1783), the heir to Maximilian Emanuel III. (1695–1763), the last imperial prince of Horn , after whose death Philipp Joseph assumed the title of prince of Hornes and Overisque . The couple lived mainly in Vienna and Paris , where Philipp Joseph was dubbed “the beautiful Prince” or “the beautiful Rhine Count” because of the vanity attributed to him. In 1740 he was accepted as a knight in the Order of the White Eagle . The Empress Amalia appointed him chamberlain .
On February 21, 1743 he was elevated to the rank of imperial prince by Emperor Charles VII, along with his older brother, Johann Dominik Albert zu Salm-Kyrburg , who remained unmarried and with whom he jointly ruled over the inherited and married territories . At the Reichstag in Regenburg , the brothers - alternating with their cousin Nikolaus Leopold zu Salm-Salm - shared the Salmian virile vote in the Imperial Council from 1738 , which had existed since 1654 after the Prince of Philip Otto zu Salm in 1623 .
With Nikolaus Leopold zu Salm-Salm, whom his father-in-law Ludwig Otto zu Salm had initially designated as the heir of his territories, the brothers contractually agreed in 1744 on a division of this inheritance, after which Nikolaus Leopold received the County of Salm in the Vosges and the rule of Vinstingen , she herself the Oberamt Kyrburg. This division led to the creation of the Salm-Salm and Salm-Kyrburg lines. The latter was named after the Kyrburg , the last fortified castle on the Nahe , which was destroyed by the French military in 1734 in the course of the War of the Polish Succession , before the counter-order of Louis XV obtained by Prince zu Salm . arrived. In his line of the noble Salm family, Philipp Joseph introduced the right of birthright on June 20, 1747 .
