Clara Elisabeth von Platen was a long time mistress of Ernest Augustus, Elector of Hanover. Her intrigues and her involvement in the so called Königsmarck Affair led to Count Königsmarck's death and, subsequently, to the annulment of the marriage between prince George Louis of Hanover (future king George I of Great Britain) and Sophia Dorothea of Celle.
