Archduchess Margarete Sophie of Austria (Margarete Sophie Marie Annunciata Theresia Caroline Luise Josephe Johanna; 13 May 1870 – 24 August 1902)[citation needed] was a member of the House of Habsburg and an Archduchess of Austria by birth.

Margarete Sophie was born at Artstetten Castle, Artstetten-Pöbring, the fourth and youngest child and only daughter of Archduke Karl Ludwig of Austria and his second wife Princess Maria Annunziata of Bourbon-Two Sicilies.

[citation needed] As a young woman, Margarete Sophie was princess-abbess of the Theresian Royal and Imperial Ladies Chapter in Prague (1886-1893).
