$25 per person

Remembered for his unusual ways, extravagant castles, and passionate support of Wagner, Ludwig in fact reigned over a tumultuous era in Bavaria, as the country, independent for hundreds of years, was caught in the power struggle between Austria and Prussia. His desultory interest in government, coupled with the unscrupulous ambitions of family members, was a recipe for disaster, and contributed to Ludwig's abrupt downfall and mysterious death. Was the king truly insane or a victim of intrigue? This lecture will look at the circumstances and events surrounding the life and death of Ludwig II. Instructor: Nancy Maxwell
