List of foreign ministers of Austria-Hungary
This is a list of foreign ministers of the Habsburg Monarchy, of the Austrian Empire, and of Austria-Hungary up to 1918.
Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the Habsburg Monarchy (1720–1805)
From 1664/69 the Privy Conference, a committee of the Imperial Privy Council, provided advice to Emperor Leopold I whereby the Austrian Court Chancellor, responsible for the Habsburg 'Hereditary Lands', served as rapporteur and thereby gained increasing influence. The Habsburg diplomatic service was re-organised, when Emperor Charles VI by resolution of 1720 declared Court Chancellor Philipp Ludwig Wenzel von Sinzendorf responsible for foreign policy issues. Upon Sinzendorf's death in February 1742, Archduchess Maria Theresa finally separated the central Habsburg State Chancellery responsible of Foreign Affairs from the domestic Austrian Court Chancellery.| Portrait | Name | Began | Ended |
