Their story
Rudolf II Habsburg, born in Rheinfelden in 1270, was a member of the esteemed House of Habsburg. He held the title of Duke of Swabia, a significant position within the Holy Roman Empire during the late 13th century. Though his life was relatively brief, ending in Prague in 1290, he was part of a dynastic lineage that would profoundly shape European history. His early passing meant his direct impact on the broader political landscape was limited, yet his existence is firmly recorded within the annals of the Habsburg family's rise to power.
