Christina, sister of King Carl Gustav of Sweden wore a Tiara that reminds me of one that Luisa had on a photo. Is this maybe the same Tiara?
Christinas sister Brigitta married a prince of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, and you know that Luisa was married into the H-Sigmaringer family, too. Maybe that´s the Tiara and Christina borrowed it.
Any help? Thanks!



The photo of Luisa is not so good, sorry.

They had the thought that if Leopold didn´t want the throne of Spain Friedrich Eugen should take it. But he didn´t want to.
How interesting would that had been:

King Friedrich Eugen of Spain with Queen Louisa
King Miguel II. of Portugal with Queen Elisabeth
and if the plan had worked a King Friedrich Christian of Poland with Queen Elisabeth Helene

Three Thurn und Taxis Queens! A pity it wasn´t so.

FE was more a homely man. An "adventure" like Spain wasn´t attractive to him.
I can understand. But hey a Queen Louisa.  ;D

Absolutely ! Look what happen to the Kings later on who get driven from their thrones or assasinated.
