The Hôtel was the birthplace of her mother, a granddaughter of Louis de Bourbon, an uncle of Henry IV of France.

Louise Christine of Savoy refused to leave the refined French court and follow her husband to Baden-Baden.

Louise Christine gave birth to a son on April 8, 1655 named Louis William of Baden-Baden.

As a consequence Louis William was not raised by his mother, but by his grandfather's second wife Maria Magdalena of Oettingen-Baldern.

She is also an ancestor of the ruling Felipe VI of Spain, Henri, Grand Duke of Luxembourg and Albert II of Belgium.
