The Firmian family was an ancient and influential Austrian noble family hailing from Tyrol, first documented in the 10th century. Members of the family held many important ecclesiastical and political positions within the Holy Roman Empire. On 20 September 1749 they were awarded with the title of Count by Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor.[1]
Their ancestral seat was Sigmundskron Castle.
