Vilém Kinský
Appearance
Wilhelm Kinsky (Template:Lang-cs; Template:Lang-de; 1574 – February 25, 1634) was a Bohemian Count of Wichinitz and statesman.
The Kinsky family were members of the Bohemian aristocracy. In 1628, Kinsky was elevated to the rank of count in the Bohemian nobility when the Wallenstein family, to which he was connected, were ennobled.
Kinsky was killed at Eger as part of the plot to assassinate Field Marshal Albrecht von Wallenstein of the Imperial Army during the Thirty Years' War.
One of Kinsky's descendants, Count Oktavian Kinsky, founded the world-famous Kinsky-horse breeding Stud in Bohemia.
