The aim of the article is to describe physicians around the Emperor Rudolf II and to bring missing information on the historically underestimated group of courtiers. As an example, the less known emperors physician Christophoro Guarinoni (1534-1604) is presented. His work "Consilia medicinalia" can mediate interesting details on the health status of eminent representatives of the Rudolfs court, e.g. William of Rozemberk, Ottavio Spinola or Edward Kelly and important information on Emperor Rudolf physicians.
