Duke
Silvius II Frederick of Wurttemberg-Oels
(21 February 1651 in
Oleśnica
– 3 June 1697 in Olesnica) was
Duke
of
Württemberg-Oels
from 1668 until his death.
Silvius Frederick was second son of the Duke
Silvius I Nimrod of Württemberg-Oels
(1622–1664) from his marriage to
Elisabeth Marie, Duchess of Oels
(1625–1686) .
After his father's death in 1664, his mother took up government as regent for her four sons. Silvius Nimrod and his older brother
Charles Ferdinand
went on a
Grand Tour
. Charles Ferdinand died in 1668, when they were visiting the Netherlands.
The remaining three brothers divided the country in 1672: Silvius Frederick received Oels; his brother
Christian Ulrich I
received
Bernstadt
and his youngest brother
Julius Siegmund
received
Międzybórz
and
Třebenice
. As Julius was still a minor, Silvius Frederick acted as his regent until he came of age. In the Chamber of Princes, the three brothers had to share their single vote.
Silvius Frederick married on 7 May 1672 in Oels with
Eleonore Charlotte
(1656–1743), the daughter of the Duke
George II of Württemberg-Montbéliard
. The marriage remained childless.
He was a member of the
Fruitbearing Society
under the nickname
der Schützende
("the Protector").
Silvius Frederick died in 1697, without leaving an heir. By order of his mother, Oels fell to her next younger son, Christian Ulrich I.
