The Principality of Gradisca (now Italy) was a county until 1647 and was part of the Holy Roman Empire. In 1647 it was made a principality for the Princes of Eggenberg as a loan of Austria. When the dynasty became extinct in 1717 the principality became fully part of Austria. The arms were newly devised in 1647, their meaning is not known. | The Principality of Gradisca (now Italy) was a county until 1647 and was part of the Holy Roman Empire.
