	Virtual Vienna Net - Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria
		Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria (21 August 1858 — 30 January 1889) was the son and heir of Emperor Franz Josef of Austria and Elisabeth of Austria.
		Rudolf appeared to be genuinely in love, but his mother regarded her new daughter-in-law as a "clumsy oaf." By the time their only child, the Archduchess Elizabeth, was born on September 2, 1883, the couple had drifted apart, and he found solace in drink and female companionship.
		One is that the couple had a violent struggle and that the crown prince murdered his lover by battering her before shooting himself; in other words, a clear case of murder rather than the suggested double suicide.
