Esterházy family crest

The "L" has to do with Holy Roman Emperor Leopold. I believe he had originally granted the Eszterházy family its land and title (was what I got from the tour guide, anyway).

Very sharp image with fascinating details. The guidebook is very likely correct concerning the augmentation of the coat of arms. "V"
