Katharina Juliane von Hanau-Munzenberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Katharina Juliane von Hanau-Münzenberg (born March 17, 1604 in Steinau an der Strasse , † December 28, 1668 in Hanau ) was a Countess of Hanau-Münzenberg, Countess of Solms-Laubach and Princess of Wied-Runkel.

Life

She was a daughter of Count Philipp Ludwig II of Hanau-Munzenberg (* 1576, † 1612) and Princess Katharina Belgica (* 1578, † 1648), a daughter of Wilhelm I of Orange-Nassau , the silent man.

Marriages and offspring

Katharina Juliane was married twice:

  1. on September 11, 1631 she married Count Albert Otto II von Solms-Laubach (* June 29, 1610; † 1639). It emerged from this:
    1. Karl Otto (August 22, 1633, † August 6, 1676), married Countess Amoena Elisabeth von Bentheim on July 18, 1654 .
    2. Elisabeth Juliana (March 6, 1635; † January 2, 1693), married Prince Wilhelm von Anhalt-Harzgerode on July 25, 1671 (August 18, 1643; † December 14, 1709)
  2. on March 31, 1642 she married Moritz Christian von Wied-Runkel (* January 10, 1620, † January 25, 1653). It emerged from this:
    1. Maria Belgia Charlotte (* 1645; † 1681 in Hanau), buried there in the Marienkirche .

The second marriage ended in disaster, as the couple also quarreled in public and finally with Katharina Juliane's flight to Laubach. Her attempt to see her second husband again failed. He died in Runkel the day before she got there. His brother, Count Friedrich von Wied-Runkel, refused to allow her to enter the castle and see the body again. The matter opened a long-standing dispute between Katharina Juliane and Count Friedrich. Because of differences with her son, she finally had to leave Laubach and moved back to Hanau with her daughter.

death

After her death on December 28, 1668 in Hanau, she was buried on March 23, 1669 in the count's crypt in Laubach . Various funeral sermons have appeared at her burial.

Individual evidence

  1. ^ Rudolf Lenz: Catalog of funeral sermons and other funeral pamphlets in the Hessian state and university library in Darmstadt = Marburger Personalschriftforschungen 11, Sigmaringen 1990, No. 1439, p. 508, names Laubach as the place of death. This is countered by the fact that there were almost three months between death and burial, which speaks in favor of transferring the body from Hanau to Laubach.
