Sibylle of Baden

Sibylle married on 24 January 1505 to Count Philipp III of Hanau-Lichtenberg (18 October 1482 – 15 May 1538). She brought a dowry of 5000 guilders into the marriage. They had six children: • Johanna (1507 – 27 January 1572 at Eberstein Castle in Gernsbach), married on 6 November 1522 to Count Wilhelm IV of Eberstein (3 May 1497 – 1 July 1562). • Christophora (1509 – 7 March 1582), a nun in Marienborn Abbey from November 1526, and later the last abbess there. • Amalie (1512 – 5 February 1578), also a nun in Marienborn Abbey from November 1526. • Felicitas (5 March 1513 – November 1513). • Philipp IV (20 October 1514 – 19 February 1590), Count of Hanau-Lichtenberg. • Felicitas (1516 – 27 August 1551), also a nun in Marienborn Abbey from November 1526. ==Altar in Babenhausen==

By 1513, Sibylle had given birth to four daughters, but no son. She vowed that she would donate an altar if she had a son. In 1514, Philipp was born and Sibylle donated a high altar to the City Church of St. Nicholas in Babenhausen. This altar is considered a major work of art from the Middle Rhine area in this period (artist unknown). With this artist, Sibylle created a monument to herself and her relatives. The left wing of the altar depicts, among other people, her great-uncle, the blessed Bernard II, who was famous for his pious life and was beatified in the 18th century. ==Death==

Sibylle died on 10 July 1518 and was buried in the family crypt of the Hanau-Lichtenberg dynasty in the City Church of St. Nicholas in Babenhausen, where her husband was later buried. == Ancestors ==
