History

The territory consisted at times of two historical states, which were both named after the state of Fürstenberg and the Fürstenberg Castle. The first state was created in 1408 as a partition of the county of Fürstenberg. After the death in 1441 of its only count, Henry VII, it was partitioned between Fürstenberg-Baar and Fürstenberg-Geisingen.

The second state emerged as a county in 1704, as a partition of Fürstenberg-Stühlingen. It was raised to a principality in 1716, then was partitioned between itself and Fürstenberg-Pürglitz in 1762, after the death of Prince Joseph Wilhelm Ernst (1699–1762).

The last male of the Fürstenberg-Fürstenberg branch was Prince Charles Joachim (1771–1804). Upon his death in 1804, the principality was inherited by the Princes of Fürstenberg-Pürglitz, who descended from Prince Joseph Wilhelm Ernst's second son.
