 The second and eldest surviving child of Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI and Elisabeth Christine of Brunswick @-@ Wolfenbüttel , Archduchess Maria Theresa was born early in the morning of 13 May 1717 , at the Hofburg Palace , Vienna , shortly after the death of her elder brother , Archduke Leopold , and was baptised on that same evening . The dowager empresses , her aunt Wilhelmine Amalia of Brunswick @-@ Lüneburg and grandmother Eleonor Magdalene of the Palatinate @-@ Neuburg , were her godmothers .

Wilhelm was known as Wilhelm the Rich .
