About Louis Armand I, Prince of Conti

Louis Armand I, the Prince of Conti, born on 30 April 1661 at Hôtel de Conti in Paris and died 9 November 1685 at age 24 at the Palace of Fontainebleau from smallpox. He was the son-in-law of Louis XIV, who was his namesake and as a member of the reigning House of Bourbon, was a ‘Prince du Sang’ or Prince of the Blood. In 1680 he married Marie Anne de Bourbon, the illegitimate daughter of King Louis XIV and his first mistress, Louse de la Vallière. After serving with distinction in Flanders in 1683, he went onto Hungary to fight against the Turks, which was against the wishes of the King. When he returned home, he contracted smallpox from his wife and succumbed to the disease five days later.
