Antique Genealogy Chart of the Landgraviate Hessen-Kassel, Germany, 1732
Located in Langweer, NL
Antique print titled 'Genealogie de la Maison de Hesse Cassel'. Chart of the genealogy of the Landgraviate Hessen-Kassel / Hesse-Cassel. This includes the coats of arms of both Hesse-Cassel and Hesse-Darmstadt. This print orginates from 'Atlas Historique'. The Landgraviate of Hesse-Kassel (German: Landgrafschaft Hessen-Kassel), spelled Hesse-Cassel during its entire existence, was a state in the Holy Roman Empire that was directly subject to the Emperor. The state was created in 1567 when the Landgraviate of Hesse was divided upon the death of Philip I, Landgrave of Hesse. His eldest son William IV inherited the northern half of the Landgraviate and the capital of Kassel. The other sons received the Landgraviate of Hesse-Marburg, the Landgraviate of Hesse-Rheinfels and the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt. During the Napoleonic reorganisation of the Empire in 1803, the Landgrave of Hesse-Kassel was elevated to an Electorate and Landgrave William IX became an Imperial Elector. Many members of the Hesse-Kassel House served in the Danish military gaining high ranks and power in the Oldenburg realm due to the fact that many Landgraves were married to Danish princesses...
