On June 5th. 1861 Louis married Duchess Mathilda Ludovika in Bavaria.
Duchess Mathilda Ludovika in Bavaria was a daughter of 
Duke Maximilian in Bavaria and Princess Ludovika of Bavaria. She was
also a sister of inter alia Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sisi).

From the beginning this marriage wasn't a big success at all.

traveled from place to place often accompanied by one of her sisters.

The couple had together one daughter and Louis had one natural son.
