Life edit
Prince Michael Esterházy was the twelfth son of Paul I, Prince Esterházy and Countess Orsolya Esterházy of Galanthá.
Michael was politically insignificant. He protected the family's patronage and had a hunting lodge built in Fertőd, which was expanded over 50 years later under Prince Nicholas I of Esterházy to become Esterházy Castle (Fertőd), one of the most representative castle complexes in Hungary.
On May 24, 1694, he married Biandrata Anna Margherita (1673-1755) in Vienna.
Prince Michael died in Vienna in 1721. He is buried in the family crypt in the Franciscan monastery in Eisenstadt. He died without a male heir, so his half-brother Joseph became the next head of the family.
In Vienna , when he was a student, he published his dissertation: Regula regum amor et timor sive Ladislaus rex Hungariae... Dicata 27. Jun. 1688. Deferente Gabr. Hevenesi Soc. I. Viennae.
