Who is King Louis XIV's great-grandson?

Answer 1

Only counting the legitimate line: Louis XIV's grandsons were Louis Duke of Burgundy, Philip V of Spain and Charles Duke of Berry, who were the sons of his only son Louis the Dauphin (Crown prince).

Sadly, Both the Dauphin and his eldest son the Duke of Burgundy died before Louis XIV, leaving the elderly king's only heir and eventual successor to be his toddler great-grandson Louis Duke of Anjou who ascended as Louis XV when Louis XIV died in 1715.

And yes, contrary to popular belief Louis XV is not the son of Louis XIV but rather his great-grandson

Answer 2

Louis had more than one great grandson as he had daughters and they also had children. In fact, grandchildren of Philipe II, Duc de Orleans, the French regent , were also great grandchildren of Louis XIV as Philippe II was married to his uncle Louis XIV's illegtimate daughter. The most significant great grandson was of course Louis XV, the sole surviving direct heir of Louis XIV. His father was a grandson of Louis XIV and his mother was a grandniece of Louis XIV(she was the granddaughter of Louis XIV's brother).

Answer 3

Louis XVI
