Prince Paul Anton III Esterhazy 1786 - 1866. The House of Esterhazy was a Hungarian noble family, in Hungary since the Middle Ages. From the 17th century, they belonged to the great landowner magnates of the Kingdom of Hungary, during the time it was part of the Habsburg Empire and later Austria Hungary.
Esterhazy was a patron of homeopathy, and he consulted homeopath Franz Xaver Kinzel, who accompanied Esterhazy to Italy in 1827. Esterhazy attended a Homeopathic Conference with Franz Xaver Kinzel just before his death.
I met Niemen, the Austrian diplomate, and Esterhazy, at dinner. They both, I think, were afraid of saying all they knew and believed about homeopathy, nevertheless they supported me…

Michael Graf Esterhazy was a homeopath in Merzidorf in 1860.
