Maria Christina, Duchess of Teschen, was the fifth child of Maria Theresa of Austria and Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor. Married in 1766 to Prince Albert of Saxony, the couple received the Duchy of Teschen, and she was appointed Governor of the Austrian Netherlands jointly with her husband during 1781–1789 and 1791–1792. After two expulsions from the Netherlands (in 1789 and 1792), she lived with her husband in Vienna until her death.

The Archduchess, capricious and spirited in her youth, received a particularly loving education from her parents. Her mother's preferential treatment caused the intense jealousy of her brothers and sisters, who avoided her and criticized her prominent position. The dislike of her siblings increased later in life, since Maria Theresa increasingly used her to exercise influence. Beautiful, highly intelligent, but also artistically gifted, Maria Christina enjoyed a conscientious education. 

The 17-year-old Maria Christina had a romance with Louis Eugene, Duke of Württemberg, but a marriage between them displeased the Empress. InJanuary 1760, Princes Albert and Clemens of Saxony arrived at the Imperial Court. Prince Albert met the lovely Archduchess on the occasion of a concert, in which she participated, and soon he developed a great affection for her. At the end of January 1760, Albert and Clemens returned from Vienna.

In the following years, Maria Christina developed an intense connection with Princess Isabella of Parma, who married the future Joseph II, Holy Roman Emperor on 6 October 1760. The two young women were often together and expressed heartfelt affection in about 200 letters between them, usually written in French. The early demise Isabella on November 27, 1763 following childbirth complications, left Maria Christina heartbroken. In December 1763, Prince Albert of Saxony returned to Vienna ... and thus began the courtship, engagement, and marriage of Maria Christina to the prince on April 8, 1766.
