Countess Louise Henriette of Nassau

[citation needed] Louise Henriëtte was born in The Hague, the eldest daughter of Frederick Henry, Prince of Orange, and Amalia of Solms-Braunfels.During her marriage, Louise Henriëtte followed her spouse and traveled between The Hague, Königsberg, Berlin and Cleves on campaigns, inspections, war and battle fields in Poland and Denmark.In 1650 her husband gave her the Amt Bötzow, an electoral domain with large estates and numerous places and farmers that were subject to taxes.Louise Henriëtte had a new castle in Dutch style built in Bötzow in 1650-52 and called it Oranienburg Palace, after her family, the House of Orange-Nassau.She was described as truly kind and gentle with a sharp intellect: her advice was vital for her spouse, and their marriage was considered a role model.
