Magdalena Claudia von Pfalz-Birkenfeld

Count Palatine Magdalena Claudia von Pfalz-Zweibrücken-Birkenfeld-Bischweiler - also: Magdalena Claudine - (born September 16, 1668 ; † November 28, 1704 in Hanau ) was the daughter of Count Palatine Christian II of Zweibrücken- Birkenfeld-Bischweiler (* June 22, 1637 - April 26, 1717). She married on 17./27. February 1689 in Hanau Count Philipp Reinhard von Hanau-Münzenberg (* 1664; † 1712). Both were cousin and cousin. The dowry was 18,000 guilders . From this marriage emerged:

  1. Stillborn (1691), buried in the crypt of the Lutheran Church (today: Alte Johanneskirche in Hanau)
  2. Stillbirth (1693);
  3. Magdalene Katharine von Hanau (* 6/16 June 1695, † 9/19 December 1695), buried in the crypt of the Johanneskirche in Hanau.

Magdalena Claudia died on November 28, 1704 and was also buried on December 18, 1704 in the crypt of the Lutheran Church in Hanau. Funeral sermons were also published. During the ringing of the mourning, the largest bell of the Johanneskirche, which she had donated, burst. The hereditary burial of the Lutheran branch of the Hanau count family - and with it the burial of Countess Magdalena Claudia - was destroyed in the Second World War.
