BECAUSE THE LOVE NEVER DIE

Catherina Pavlovna
|
King Wilhelm I from Wurttemberg
|
Devastated by the news, many historians highlight the great pain that Catherina suffered at the time, even cataloging her as having a depressive nature, so that her family tried to help her by looking for a new prospect to re-make her life, including the Emperor of Austria, which rejected the proposal by the Russian Orthodox religion of Catherina, but Catherina's family also helped motivate her to travel the world and know beyond its borders.
During one of those trips he met in London with his cousin, Wilhem de Wurttemberg, with whom they began a friendship, gradually strengthening their relationship, even traveling together, letters were written and then met at a congress in the Vienna city, by then the rumors and expectations of their relationship was great, it was commented that an alliance between the future king of Wurttemberg and the princess of Russia could lead to a strategic alliance for Germany, become a strong state and even reach Being an Empire, for Catherina's ears that had her ambitions, as for the young prince, these ideas were very positive and motivating. After the fall of Napoleon and the loss of influence in international politics, Prince Wilhem finally managed to annul his marriage even by both the evangelical church and Orthodox Russia to finally be able to marry the woman he really wanted as a wife.
The wedding was held in Saint Petersburg in 1816 and the honeymoon was spent in Russia. It was the month of March when Prince Wilhelm finally arrives in the city of Stuttgart with his new wife Catherina and you are two children, in a caravan with several carriages full of riches, jewels and lots of money, the people received them in the square of castle with much joy and hope for the poor state that at the time did not pass a good social and economic situation. Initially it was thought that the small and poor city of Stuttgart would not be liked by the princess, since she was used to the riches of Russia, but her long journeys and the loss of her first husband at such a young age had developed in the princess a personality with greater openness with other priorities. The princess was granted the opportunity to build a Russian Orthodox chapel that was her religion since she was a child, the couple lived in the princes' palace in what is now King's Street a few meters from the castle square, La Queen Catherina had two daughters with King Wilhelm.
Catherina liked to spend the days in the BadCannstatt area in a small palace next to the Neckar River, which is now the Stuttgart Wilhema Zoo, in addition to her favorite place the ruins of the Wurrttember Castle, as well as a great significance historical, she was always part of the dynasty of the Wurttemberg house and such an emotional place made them feel more entrenched in those lands, besides that the panoramic view is impressive.
Finally in 1816 King Fridrich dies and Prince Wilhem at 35 becomes King Wilheml 1st and Catherina at 28 years in the Queen of Wurttemberg. That same year was known as the year without summer, as the eruption of a volcano in Indonesia affected the global climate hitting that year to agricultural production in Europe causing more poverty and food shortages. So when he comes to power he finds a weak, poor state, with many debts inherited from King Fridrich, many needs that helped Queen Catherina feel much more useful and motivated to work for her people, because she always thought that wealth of Russian lands should be the conditions of the people of Stuttgart and Wurttemberg. Many are the works that were developed during his time, the construction of the Hospital that bears his name, a School for girls, the creation of the first Bank, the first festival in Bad Canstatt Volksfest that originally was exclusively for the promotion of the Agriculture.
