Sophie Charlotte de Bavière

Charlotte de Bavière (Sophie Charlotte; 28th October 1692 - present) was Reine-Consort de Lorraine via marriage to Léopold III, Roi de Lorraine. Married in 1712, she was known as the Princesse de Vaudémont and became Reine-Consort de Lorraine upon the death of her father-in-law, Charles III, and the ascension of her husband. Following the mysterious passing of Léopold III in 1717, Charlotte was styled as the Reine-Douairière de Lorraine. Her sister-in-law's husband, Philippe de Lorraine-Montbéliard, would succeed her as consort.

Following her husband's death, Charlotte remained at court for the early years of Élisabeth I's reign. She resided in the traditional dowager apartments at the Château de Lunéville for many approximately a decade. By 1727, she departed Lunéville for the Château de Commercy. Here, she began her private court, and has rarely visited court since her departure.
