Biography

Johann Wenzel of Gallas was born on 23 May 1669 in Hořiněves Castle. He was the eldest son of the Imperial general Count Franz Ferdinand of Gallas (1635–1697) and his second wife Johanna Emerentia Countess Gaschin of Rosenberg, and a grandson of Generalfeldmarschall Matthias Gallas, one of the leading Imperial commanders during the Thirty Years' War.

Johann Wenzel of Gallas worked in the service of Emperors Joseph I and Charles VI, primarily as a diplomat. He successively became the Imperial ambassador in London (1705–1711), The Hague (1711–1713) and Rome (1713–1718). He carried out his diplomatic activities during the War of the Spanish Succession and was involved in negotiations with the English and Dutch allies and with the French Marquess of Torcy.

In addition, he was the Emperor's real privy councilor, associate judge of the Czech regional court and above all from 1708 Marshal of the Kingdom of Bohemia. Emperor Charles VI, who claimed the Spanish throne, also awarded Gallas the rank of Grandee of Spain in 1712 for his services.

In 1713, Gallas had the vast palace Clam-Gallas Palace built in the Old Town of Prague with the participation of the most important artists of his time, architect Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach and sculptor Matthias Braun.

At the end of his career, Gallas was appointed Viceroy of Naples in summer 1719.
