Princess of Soubise

Within the French nobility, "Princess of Soubise" was the title given to the wife of the Prince of Soubise. The title was established in 1667 when the sirerie of Soubise, Charente-Maritime was elevated to a principality.^[1]

The title was held by seven women, from Anne de Rohan-Chabot (1638-1709) to Viktoria of Hesse-Rheinfels-Rotenburg (1728-1792), with the title being extinguished upon the death of Charles (1715-1787).
