Biography

Princess Frederica Louise Wilhelmina of Orange-Nassau (28 November 1770 – 15 October 1819) was a hereditary princess of Brunswick; married 14 October 1790 to Hereditary Prince Charles George August of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel (1766 – 20 September 1806). She was known in the family as "Loulou".

Frederica Louise Wilhelmina was the daughter of William V, Prince of Orange and Wilhelmina of Prussia, Princess of Orange. Her marriage was arranged in 1790 as a gesture of gratitude to her father-in-law after he had assisted her parents against the Dutch rebellion in 1787. She had no issue and acted as a nurse to her consort, who was mentally restricted as well as blind.

In 1806, her spouse died shortly before her father-in-law. The same year, the Duchy was invaded by France, and she left Brunswick for Switzerland with her mother.[2] She eventually joined her former husbands family in England. From 1814, she lived in the Netherlands, in the country estate Zorgvliet outside Haarlem nearby her mothers estate.
