What happen to the kids of Marie Antoinette?
Marie Antoinette had four children, two whom died in childhood. The surviving children, Louis Charles and Marie Therese Charlotte were imprisoned with their parents and after Louis XVI was executed Louis Charles was separated from his mother, sister and aunt and placed in a cell beneath theirs where they could hear his cries. He was proclaimed Louis XVII upon his fathers death and was brutally beaten by his jailers they plied him with wine and forced him to falsely testify against his mother during her trial, that she and his pious aunt had sexually abused him, he remained imprisoned until his death of tuberculosis in 1795. Many men claimed in the years that followed to be Louis Charles, although DNA tests in 2000 on the body on the boy buried in prison proved to be Marie Antoinette's son. Marie Therese Charlotte fled France after the revolution. She became the duchesse d'Angouleme and lived to old age to see the reign of her uncles Louis XVIII and Charles V. She died childless thus ending the direct line of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI. Marie did not live in a house ever. As a princess and Queen, she was born at a palace in Vienna, Austria. She spent the next half of her life in the Palace of Versailles, France, which is open to tourists. You can find a map on Google. She lived in the Tulieries palace, also in France.
