context_page_description: Franz III. Nádasdy was a chief judge and general in Hungary. He was one of the leaders of the Magnate conspiracy against Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I. After the conspiracy was revealed, he and two other leaders were all executed.
context_section_description: He was descended from two royal houses. He was not only descended from a son of Edward I of England who had settled in Hungary, but also the grandson of Ferenc Nádasdy. His grandmother Elisabeth Báthory (the infamous Bloody Countess of Csejte Castle) came from the noble Báthory family.
  Nádasdy converted to Roman Catholicism on 25 November 1643 in order to marry countess Anna Juliana Esterházy, daughter of Nikolaus, Count Esterházy, on 6 February the following year. After the Hungarian Diet in Pressburg decided upon the return of the County of Hornstein to the Kingdom of Hungary, Nádasdy ordered Rudolf von Stotzingen to dismiss his mercenaries.
