  • January 865: In 864 German king Louis was forced to grant Carloman the kingdom of Bavaria, which he himself had once held under his father.
  • August 876: Louis of Germany was preparing for a new war when he died on August 28, 876 in Frankfurt. He was buried at the abbey of Lorsch, leaving three sons and three daughters. His sons, unusual for their earlier behaviour, respected the divisions made a decade earlier and each contented himself with his own kingdom.
