The year 2022 marks the 185th anniversary of the birth of Empress Elisabeth of Austria, who is perhaps better known as Sisi. This collection of articles was written to mark the anniversary for the website History of Royal Women. The collection focuses on important dates and people in her life and walks you through them as the year goes by.
