## Early life and ancestry

[edit]

Coat of arms of Prince Carl Oscar of Sweden

Born in the Stockholm Palace, Carl Oscar Vilhelm Frederick was the only son and younger child in the marriage of Crown Prince Charles (later King Charles XV and IV) of the United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway (1826–1872) and his wife, Princess Louise of the Netherlands (1828–1871). By birth, he was member of the House of Bernadotte, Swedish royal family of French ancestry. He had one elder sibling, Princess Louise of Sweden who would become Queen consort of Denmark.

During his short life, Carl Oskar was second in line to the throne of Sweden and Norway, after his father, and was also Duke of Södermanland. As a result of his early death and his father's lack of legitimate male heirs, his uncle, Prince Oscar Fredrik eventually inherited the throne of Sweden and Norway as King Oscar II.[1]

## Death

[edit]

In February 1854 the young prince suffered from measles and was prescribed a cold bath. This led to pneumonia and the prince Carl Oskar died of the disease, in Stockholm palace, at the age of just 15 months on 13 March 1854. He is interred in a royal vault of the Riddarholmen Church in Stockholm, Sweden.[2]
