Ludwig of Hohenlohe-Langenburg (20 October 1696 in Langenburg – 16 January 1765 in Langenburg) was a Count of Hohenlohe-Langenburg. On 7 January 1764, he was elevated to Imperial Prince by Emperor Francis I.




Life


He was a son of Count Albert Wolfgang of Hohenlohe-Langenburg and Countess Sophia Amalia of Nassau-Saarbrücken.
During Ludwig's reign as prince, some modifications to Langenburg Castle were made: the east wing was provided with its present form and further modifications in the Baroque style took place. He also built, as his summer residence, the Lustschloss Ludwigsruhe on the land of the former hamlet of Lindenbronn, next to the hunting park created in 1588.
