Fürstenberg is the name of a noble house from Germany, based primarily in southern Baden-Württemberg. The family derives its name from the fortified town of the line's founder, Count Heinrich von Fürstenberg, today part of Hüfingen. Numerous members of the family haven risen to prominence over the centuries as soldiers, churchmen, diplomats, and academics — one was even a famous fashion designer. Sometimes the name is Gallicized as de Furstenberg or Anglicized as Furstenberg.
Neo-Romanesque complex of the former Convent of Merciful Sisters of St. Charles Borromeo (klášter milosrdných sester sv. Karla Boromejského) is one of principal landmarks of town Frýdlant nad Ostravicí. The Convent complex, the largest and the most valuable architectonic monument of Frýdlant, was founded by Archbishop of Olomouc cardinal Friedrich von Fürstenberg in 1871.
