Louis William, Margrave of Baden-Baden
[1] At the siege of Vienna by the Turks, in 1683, he threw his forces into the city, and by a brilliant sally effected a junction with Jan III Sobieski and the Duke of Lorraine, who had come to its relief.[3][4] After a fruitless campaign in 1692 due to a lack of funds and soldiers, he was appointed to the Upper Rhine at the request of the Swabian and Franconian Imperial circles.At the head of the circle troops that formed the Army of the Holy Roman Empire he defended the Rhine against superior French forces in the War of the Grand Alliance.He continued to command on the Upper Rhine without treating the injury and died as a result of this wound on January 4, 1707 at the age of 51 in his unfinished Schloss Rastatt.They had the following children:[citation needed] Seventeen years after the margrave's death, the only one of his daughters to survive childhood, Princess Auguste, married Louis d'Orléans, son of the infamous French Regent and, at the time of the wedding, first in the line of succession to the throne of France.
