Princess Sophie of Baden (Sophie Pauline Henriette Marie Amelie Luise; 7 August 1834 in
Karlsruhe – 6 April 1904 in Karlsruhe), was a Princess of
Baden by birth and the
Princess consort of Lippe by marriage.
Sophie was married to
Woldemar, Prince of Lippe (1824–1895) second son of
Leopold II, Prince of Lippe (1796–1851) and Princess Emilie of
Schwarzburg-Sondershausen (1800–1867) on 9 November 1858 in Karlsruhe.[1] The marriage was childless, leading to a dispute that lasted two decades between the two lines of the
House of Lippe to inherit the principality after the death of Woldemar, in 1895.[1]
The generations indicate descent from
Charles Frederick, the first Grand Duke of a united Baden. Only princesses with articles are included. Later generations do not legally hold a title due to the abolition of the monarchy in 1918-19.
