EspañolCHARLES III, PRINCE OF MONACO
(Redirected from Charles III of Monaco)
'Charles III, Prince of Monaco' (8 December 1818 – 10 September 1889) was reigning Prince of Monaco from 20 June 1856 to his death. He was the founder of the famous casino in Monte Carlo.
He was son to Florestan I of Monaco and Maria Caroline Gibert de Lametz.
Charles was married on 28 September 1846 to Antoinette de Mérode-Westerloo. He was succeeded by his son Albert I of Monaco. During his reign, the towns of Menton and Roquebrune, constituting some 80 percent of Monegasque territory, were formally ceded to France, paving the way for formal French recognition of Monaco's independence.
Under Charles III, the Principality of Monaco increased its diplomatic activities; for example, in 1864, Charles III concluded a Treaty of Friendship with the Bey of Tunis, Muhammad III as-Sadiq, which also regulated trade and maritime issues.
