Dorothea von Velen 17 April, 1670 21 August, 1732 was the mistress of Johann Wilhelm, Elector Palatine . Born into an impoverished family of Berg state Berg nobility, she came to Johann Wilhelm s attention as a lady in waiting to his second wife, Anna Maria Luisa de Medici . She bore Johann Wilhelm two children to survive to infancy, Frederika and Melusine, and is accredited with being the foremost advocate of religious toleration at the contemporary Palatine court, compelling Johann Wilhelm to issue the Religionsdeklaration of 1705. At the age of 41, she married Otto Alexander, Bailiff of Seltz . It was a happy marriage, even though Dorothea failed to give him any children. When Johann Wilhelm died, in 1716, the new Elector, Charles III Philip, Elector Palatine Charles III Philip , expelled her from her apartment in the Electoral Palace, believing her a stain on his late brother the Elector s honour.
