Ludwig IV, Landgrave of Hesse-Marburg, was a 16th-century German nobleman from the family of Philip I of Hesse. After his father's death in 1567 he inherited the northern portion of Hesse, establishing the principality known as Hesse-Marburg, with centers in Marburg and Gießen. His rule was marked by the administration and territorial consolidation of the new lordship. Educated at the court of Württemberg, Ludwig commissioned local works and reforms, notably the renovation of Marburg Castle under architect Ebert Baldewein, reflecting an interest in architectural representation of power. He also sought to expand his domains by peaceful means, acquiring parts of the estates of the counts of Nassau-Saarbrücken and Nassau-Weilburg between 1570 and 1583. He first married Duchess Hedwig of Württemberg and, after becoming a widower, married Countess Maria of Mansfeld; he left no offspring. At his death in 1604 his territories were divided between his nephews Maurice of Hesse-Cassel and Louis V of Hesse-Darmstadt, on the condition that the Lutheran faith be maintained, thereby securing the region’s religious and political continuity.
