About Charles II of Spain
Charles II of Spain may have been Spain’s monarch with the most tragic story. Being the last ruler of the Spanish Empire to come from the House of Habsburg, he died without a successor after his reign, which lasted from September 1665 to November 1700.
He was four years old when he ascended the throne and had his mother, Mariana of Austria as the regent since he had a string of health problems. Sadly, he is remembered best in history for his physical deformities and the Spanish Succession War, which succeeded his death.
Family Life
His father was Philip IV Spain. His marriages to Marie Louise of Orleans (1679-1689) and Maria Anna of Neuburg (1689) failed to produce a heir.
Death
He died of what is suspected to be hydrocephalus on 1 November 1700.
