Oscar Carl August Bernadotte, Count of Wisborg (Drottningholm, 15 November 1859 – Stockholm, 4 October 1953) was the second son of King Oscar II of Sweden and Sofia of Nassau. He was born Prince Oscar, Duke of Gotland.

[edit] Title

Prince Oscar's marriage in Bournemouth on 15 March 1888 to Ebba Henrietta Munck af Fulkila (Jönköping, 15 March 1858 – Stockholm, 16 October 1946), which had not been given consent by the King, lost him the rights of succession to the Swedish throne and his title, which he renounced. He was, however, invested with the new title Prince Bernadotte. On 2 April 1892, he was given the hereditary title Count of Wisborg by his uncle Adolphe, Grand Duke of Luxembourg, who was previously Duke of Nassau. The name Wisborg was taken from Visborg, a castle ruin in Oscar's former Duchy of Gotland. His wife was the daughter of Carl Jacob Munck af Fulkila and wife friherrinna Henrika Ulrika Antoinetta Cederström, paternal granddaughter of Carl Johan Munck af Fulkila and wife Lovisa Albertina De Pont, great-granddaughter of Carl Fredrik Munck af Fulkila and wife Brita Magdalena Stubbe, great-great-granddaughter of Mårten Munck af Fulkila and wife Katarina Ritz and great-great-great-granddaughter of Claes Munck af Fulkila and wife Helena Margareta Hästesko-Fortuna, he the great-uncle of Count Adolf Fredrik Munck af Fulkila.^[1]
