Friedrich, Prince of Waldeck and Pyrmont (Friedrich Adolf Hermann Fürst zu Waldeck und Pyrmont; 20 January 1865 – 26 May 1946) was the last reigning Prince of Waldeck and Pyrmont from 12 May 1893 to 13 November 1918.

Early life, family and education

Friedrich was born on 20 January 1865 in Arolsen, Principality of Waldeck and Pyrmont during the reign of his father George Victor, Prince of Waldeck and Pyrmont. He was the only son and sixth child of George Victor and his first wife Princess Helena of Nassau. He was a brother of the Dutch Queen consort Emma and Princess Helena, Duchess of Albany.

His maternal grandparents were William, Duke of Nassau and his second wife Princess Pauline of Württemberg. Pauline was a daughter of Prince Paul of Württemberg and his wife Charlotte of Saxe-Hildburghausen. Paul was a son of Frederick I of Württemberg and his wife Duchess Augusta of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel. Augusta was the eldest daughter of Karl Wilhelm Ferdinand, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg and Princess Augusta of Great Britain, elder sister of George III of the United Kingdom.

Friedrich studied law at both the University of Göttingen, and the Leipzig University. Following his time in university, Friedrich went on to serve in the Prussian army as part of the Guards Uhlan regiment.[1]

Reign

On 12 May 1893, Friedrich ascended to the throne upon the death of his father.[1]

During World War I, he served in the Imperial German Army as a cavalry general. Germany would however lose the war and the German Revolution would force Friedrich to abdicate on 13 November 1918. However, he refused to sign an abdication agreement for some time before signing one that gave his family ownership over their home of Arolsen Castle and the surrounding Arolsen forest.[1]

Post-abdication

During the rule of Nazi Germany, neither Friedrich or his wife joined the Nazi party.[1]

Friedrich died on 26 May 1946 in Arolsen, Allied-occupied Germany.

Marriage and children

He married Princess Bathildis of Schaumburg-Lippe, daughter of Prince William of Schaumburg-Lippe and Princess Bathildis of Anhalt-Dessau, in Náchod on 9 August 1895. They had three sons and one daughter:
