Prince Ludwig of Bavaria ( _de. Ludwig Heinrich Prinz von Bayern) (b. June 14, 1982) is a member of the Bavarian Royal House of Wittelsbach and presently fourth in the line of succession to the Bavarian throne.
Descent and early life
Prince Ludwig is the eldest son of Prince Luitpold of Bavaria and of his wife Beatrix Wiegand. He is the grandson of Prince Ludwig of Bavaria and his wife Princess Irmingard of Bavaria, and a great-great-grandson of the last King of Bavaria Ludwig III.
Ludwig was born at Landsberg am Lech and was raised at his parents' castle Schloss Kaltenberg. He attended the Ludwig Maximilians University of Munich where he received a degree in economics and history. He is presently continuing his studies in law.
uccession rights
When Ludwig's parents were married in 1979, their marriage did not conform with the laws of the House of Wittelsbach. Ludwig was born with the surname "Prinz von Bayern", but was actually not officially recognised as a prince by the royal house - although he was frequently styled as if he were. On March 3, 1999, the laws of the House of Wittelsbach were changed, the marriage of Ludwig's parents was recognised as dynastic, and Ludwig was officially recognised as a "Prince of Bavaria" by the royal house.
Ludwig is presently fourth in line of succession to be head of the house of Wittelsbach - after Prince Max, Duke in Bavaria (younger brother of the current head Franz, Duke of Bavaria), Ludwig's grandfather Ludwig, and Ludwig's father Luitpold).
As a great-great-grandson of Archduchess Maria Theresia of Austria-Este, Ludwig is also in line of succession to the Jacobite thrones of England, Scotland, France and Ireland.
