Duchess Hedwig of Württemberg

Duchess Hedwig of Württemberg (15 January 1547, Basel – 4 March 1590, Marburg) was a princess of Württemberg by birth, and by marriage Landgravine of Hesse-Marburg.

Hedwig was the eldest daughter of the Duke Christopher of Württemberg (1515–1568) from his marriage to Anna Maria (1526–1589), daughter of the Margrave George of Brandenburg-Ansbach-Kulmbach.

She married on 10 May 1563 in Stuttgart Landgrave Louis IV of Hesse-Marburg (1537–1604).

Hedwig died on 4 March 1590 and was buried next to her husband under in a tomb, with her statue in the St. Mary's Church in Marburg.
