Princess Louise of Thurn and Taxis

Princess Louise of Thurn and Taxis (; 1 June 1859 – 20 June 1948) was the eldest child of Maximilian Anton, Hereditary Prince of Thurn and Taxis, and Duchess Helene in Bavaria. She married Prince Frederick of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen in 1879.

Life Louise was a member of the House of Thurn and Taxis by birth and through her marriage to Prince Frederick of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, a Princess of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen.

Louise was the eldest child of Maximilian Anton, Hereditary Prince of Thurn and Taxis and his wife Duchess Helene in Bavaria.

Marriage Louise married Prince Frederick of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, fifth child and youngest son of Karl Anton, Prince of Hohenzollern and his wife Princess Josephine of Baden, on 21 June 1879 in Regensburg.

Louise and Frederick did not have children.

Marie of Romania, who married her nephew-by-marriage, wrote in her memoirs:

"Tantchen," his thin, active, talkative little wife, was more militant and showed scant patience with either Uncle or Aunty. Both her elderly sisters-in-law exasperated her, Fürstin Antonia as well as Carmen Sylva; I am afraid that she even occasionally called them "humbugs" and was not disinclined to be in sympathy with the younger generation when they allowed themselves to criticize their betters. "Tantchen" was very self-opinionated but not a pedagogue; she laughed with the young.
