  Crown Prince Rudolf of Austria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Crown Prince Rudolf of Austro-Hungary (21 August 1858 - 30 January 1889) was the son and heir of Emperor Franz Josef I 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 Elisabeth, was born on September 2, 1883, the couple had drifted apart, and he found solace in drink and female companionship.
Rudolf was officially declared to have been in a state of "mental unbalance" in order to enable burial in the Imperial Crypt (Kapuzinergruft) of the Capuchin Church in Vienna.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Rudolf of Habsburg
Rudolf was shrewd enough to abstain from attempting forcibly to increase his constitutional powers, and contented himself with preserving such domains and rights as were still left to the crown.
But it was not the warlike measures of Rudolf, but the defeat of Siegfried near Worringen in 1288 by the Duke of Brabant in the quarrel concerning the inheritance of Duke Walram of Limburg that curbed the ambitious efforts of the archbishop.
Rudolf was more successful in his efforts (1289) to settle the disputes in the House of Wettin.

 The Imperial House of Hapsburg:  Chapter 2
What then distinguishes the Hapsburg dynasty from other European royal houses is precisely the fact that they were not that distinguishable from their peers.
This political type of loyalty to the dynasty was absolutely necessary for the Hapsburg’s survival as the traditional ‘national’ unifiers, such as cultural, ethnic or linguistic homogeneity, were absent in their lands.
In this multi-faceted capacity, the Hapsburg sovereigns were endeavoring to portray themselves as personable and immediate rulers, instead of the removed rulers, in terms of their social relation to the polyglot populace that they actually were.
