Historical background


AQUITAINE - KINGDOM OF AQUITAINE - LOUIS

(781-814)

Louis, born in 778, was crowned King of Aquitaine in 781 by Pope Adrian. In 814, he became emperor on the death of his father Charlemagne, as he was the only surviving legitimate son. In the first part of his reign, until the year 829, he continued the work of his father and his coinage. The birth of Charles from a second marriage in 823 with Judith of Bavaria will bring his other sons, Lothair, Pepin and Louis to revolt against him. He was dethroned twice in 830 and 833 and the kingdom remained divided until his death in 840.
