Simon Philip, Count of Lippe

Simon Philip, Count of Lippe (6 April 1632 in Detmold – 19 June 1650 in Florence) was a German nobleman.

Simon Philip and his younger brothers were still minors when their father died of smallpox in 1636.

At the age of 24, she was still a minor herself,[1] so she tried to have her father, Count Christian of Waldeck-Wildungen appointed as guardian and regent.

George II was their first cousin once removed, as his paternal grandmother was the sister of the princes' great-grandfather.

In 1645, George II brought them to Giessen, to protect them against the ravages of the Thirty Years' War.
