Countess Maria Magdalena of Oettingen-Baldern was the teacher of her step-grandson, the future Margrave Louis William of Baden-Baden after his mother did not want to live with her husband at the court in Baden-Baden and moved to Paris. Her husband, Maria Magdalena's step-son, Hereditary Prince Ferdinand Maximilian then had his 3-months-old son kidnapped from Paris back to Baden-Baden and asked Maria Magdalena to educate him (1655).
