Louis Philip (German: Ludwig Philipp) (23 November 1602 – 6 January 1655) was the Count Palatine of Simmern-Kaiserslautern from 1610 until 1655. Philip acted as Administrator of the Electoral Palatinate between 1632 and 1648.
Philip was born in Heidelberg, as the youngest son of Frederick IV, Elector Palatine and Countess Louise Juliana of Nassau, herself the eldest daughter of William the Silent and his third spouse Charlotte de Bourbon-Montpensier. After his father's death in 1610, Louis Philip inherited his territories around Simmern, Kaiserslautern and Sponheim.
Philip was appointed as Administrator (Regent) of the Electoral Palatinate after the 1632 death of the Elector Frederick, and held that post until the restoration of Frederick's son Charles in 1648.[1]
Philip died in Krossen and was buried in Simmern.
