Karl Joachim, Prince of Fürstenberg

Karl Joachim Aloys Franz von Paula zu Fürstenberg-Stühlingen (31 March 1771 – 17 May 1804) was a German nobleman and member of the House of Fürstenberg.

[1][2] Karl Joachim was the youngest son of prince Joseph Wenzel zu Fürstenberg and Maria Josepha von Waldburg-Scheer-Trauchburg.

In 1787 he completed his long education with a grand tour through Belgium, Holland and England, accompanied by Joseph Kleiser.

He pulled back the first squadron of the landsturm to advance and opposed a decision by the Swabian Reichkreis to make Donaueschingen a rendezvous point for the troops of the kreis.

Karl Joachim was generally sympathetic to the French Republic and it is thought that he would have joined the Confederation of the Rhine had he lived until its foundation.
