About this person

Because his marriage to Luise was considered by the House of Baden as morganatic, Wilhelm, for a time, had no succession rights to the Grand Duchy. For most of his life he was a part of the military, notably achieving the rank of colonel and commanding the Baden brigade in the Grande Armée during the French invasion of Russia.
