{{distinguish|Georg Christian, Prince of Lobkowicz}}

Johann Georg Christian, Prince von Lobkowitz (or Lobkowicz), (Prague August 10, 1686 – Vienna October 4, 1755) was an Austrian Generalfeldmarschall.

He was a member of the old Bohemian princely family of Lobkowicz, and was a son of Ferdinand August Leopold, 3rd Prince of Lobkowicz (1655–1715) and his second wife, Maria Anna Wilhelmine of Baden-Baden. His half-brother, Philipp Hyacinth (1680–1734), continued the Roudnice Lobkowicz line as 4th Prince; Georg Christian founded the Hořin-Mělník branch of the Lobkowicz family.

Family

Johann Georg Christian married Countess Henriette von Waldstein-Wartenburg (1702–1780) in Prague on 11 March 1717. They had 10 children. Two of their sons were killed in battle; two other sons, Joseph Maria Karl (1724–1802) and August Joseph Anton (1729–1803) served in the Austrian military and diplomatic corps and became Knights in the Order of the Golden Fleece; and one, Ferdinand Maria, became bishop of Ghent.
