| | Saint Elizabeth of Hungary - 1 |
 | | Hermann I, Landgrave or Count of Thuringia, which is a region in eastern Germany, was patron of the arts and one of the richest and most influential rulers in all Europe at the beginning of the 13th Century. |
 | | Under the tutelage of Ludwig's mother Sophia, Elizabeth and her companions studied German, French, and Latin, the history of the realm, music, literature, and embroidery as well the care of linens, tapestries and wardrobes. |
 | | It was providential that Ludwig took his training so seriously, since he was called to rule at an early age, due to the death of his father in 1217. |
