Lev Skrbenský z Hříště, German: Leo Skrbenský von Hříště, also spelt Skrebensky (12 June 1863, Hausdorf (now a part of Bartošovice), Moravia, Austria-Hungary – 24 December 1938, Dlouhá Loučka, Czechoslovakia) was a prominent Cardinal in the Catholic Church during the early 20th century.
Born into a wealthy family, Lev Skrbenský z Hříště was educated at the seminary of Olomouc and during the 1880s worked on a doctorate in canon law at the Pontifical Gregorian University.
[3] Later that year, Lev (together with other Bohemian and Moravian bishops) was addressed in pope Leo's encyclical Quae Ad Nos.
[4] He participated in the 1903 and 1914 conclaves, and in 1916 was transferred to the see of Olomouc, to which he was elected by its cathedral chapter at the request of the Habsburg government.
Although his health remained very poor, Skrbenský z Hříště lived until 1938 and was the last cardinal created by Pope Leo XIII to die, outliving Vincenzo Vannutelli by more than eight years.
