  2. he died of tuberculosis

  3. Louis XVII of France, also Louis VI of Navarre (March 27, 1785 – June 8, 1795). He was officially reported to have died in the prison from consumption, what is today recognised as tuberculosis. Reportedly, his body was ravaged by tumors and scabies. He was reported to have been extremely thin and boney from malnutrition when examined after his death. An autopsy was carried out at the prison and, following a tradition of preserving royal hearts, his heart was smuggled out and preserved by the examining physician, Philippe-Jean Pelletan. Louis-Charles's body was buried in a mass grave. Dr. Pelletan was also shocked at all the scars from tortures, such as whipping, all over the front and back of his torso as well as his arms, legs, and feet.

  4. Louis XVII, was kept in a dark filthy cell until he died of tuberculosis in 1795. In future years, many men came forward claiming to be the long-lost prince.
