(Genealogy of the House of Mansfeld in: Genealogy.euweb.cz ) (10 October 2014 ).〕 In Stolberg on 11 May 1712, Louise Christine married secondly Christian, Duke of Saxe-Weissenfels. For this occasion, the Elector Frederick August I of Saxony, had the Weissenfelser Hunt Cup (der ''Weißenfelser Jagdpokal'') made as a gift for the couple. It was a costly and complex masterpiece of gold forging executed by the brothers Johann Melchior and George Christoph Dinglinger; it took as its artistic inspiration the duke's preference for the hunt. The cup stayed in the possession of the ducal house of Saxe-Weissenfels until it became extinct; after this, it again came into the possession of the Electorate of Saxony and can be admired today in the Green Vault (de: ''Grünes Gewölbe''). They had no children.〔(''Louise Christiane Gräfin zu Stolberg-Stolberg'' in: Genealogy Database by Herbert Stoyan ) (10 October 2014 ).〕〔(Genealogy of the House of Wettin in: Genealogy.euweb.cz ) (10 October 2014 ).〕 Louise Christine died in Weissenfels aged 63, having survived her second husband by twenty-three months. She was buried in the ''Schlosskirche'', Weissenfels.〔(Stolberg-Stolberg line in: Royaltyguide.nl ) (10 October 2014 ).〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Louise Christine of Stolberg-Stolberg-Ortenberg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
