The other half went to Maurice of Hesse-Kassel (or Hesse-Cassel), but since Maurice was a Calvinist, Ludwig claimed a right on the whole of Hesse-Marburg.
Lutheran professors of the University of Marburg who refused to convert to Calvinism founded in 1607 the University of Gießen which was named "Ludoviciana".
