Agustín María Muñoz y Borbón, 1st Duke of Tarancón

Muñoz was born in Madrid while his mother was still Regent of Spain and his parents' marriage was not publicly known. In 1840 Muñoz went with his parents into exile in France. In 1842 his mother purchased the Château de Malmaison where Muñoz and his siblings grew up.

In 1844 Muñoz's half-sister Queen Isabella II of Spain was declared to be of age. On 19 November 1847 Isabella gave to Muñoz the title duque de Tarancón to which was attached a Grandeza de España.[1] On 10 June 1849 she gave Muñoz a second title, vizconde de Rostrollano.[1]

With exile imposed on his mother by the Spanish Courts first, and by his own sister Queen Isabella II, Muñoz moved with her mother to France, where he would live in the town of Rueil-Malmaison, near Paris, settling in the Château de Malmaison who had previously belonged to the Empress Josephine. He died in the same palace on 15 July 1855, at the age of 18, and was buried in the Rueil-Malmaison cemetery, where his mother had a mausoleum built in memory of the three children who died before her.[2][3]
