Etymologically, the name can be traced back to the reconstructed Proto-Germanic name ''*hlūdazwiganą'', which is composed of two elements: ''*hlūdaz'' ("loud, famous") and ''*wiganą'' ("to battle, to fight") respectively, the resulting name meaning "famous warrior" or "famous in battle".

Ludwig Canal
The Ludwig Canal (German: Ludwig-Donau-Main-Kanal or Ludwigskanal), is an abandoned canal in southern Germany. The canal linked the Danube River at Kelheim with the Main River at Bamberg, connecting the Danube basin with the Rhine basin. The first realisation of a dream to enable barges to navigate from the North Sea to the Black sea, the Ludwig Canal proved to be unsustainable, and was eventually succeeded by a larger canal, over a century later. Named after King Ludwig I of Bavaria, the canal was built between 1836 and 1846. Whereas the Main and the Danube were both broad canalised rivers, the Ludwig Canal was a narrow channel, with numerous locks, and a shortage of water supply to the summit level. The canal became a bottleneck, and the operation of the waterway soon became uneconomic. A further nail in the canal's coffin was competition from the rapidly developing railway network in the southern German countryside. Rather than repair the damage suffered during World War II ...

Stadt Zürich (ship, 1855)
The ''Stadt Zürich'' was a Swiss steamship, built in 1855, that plied Lake Constance. She was given the nickname ''Teufelsschiff'' ("Devil's Ship") because she was involved in three serious collisions with other craft and was said to have sunk more German ships than the Danish navy during the Second Schleswig War. History The ''Stadt Zürich'', like her sister ship, the ''Thurgau'', was one of the largest and most powerful flush deck steamers on Lake Constance; these ships beginning their service in the mid-1850s. In 1870, the ''Stadt Zürich'' underwent her first conversion. In 1884, the ship was converted to be the first half saloon steamer of the Swiss Northeastern Railway fleet and was called, from then on, the ''Zürich''. She was used until the First World War period. Following the scrapping of the ''Zürich'' in Romanshorn her paddles were re-used on the paddle steamer, '' Pilatus'' from Lucerne.

Ludwig (crater)
Ludwig is a small lunar impact crater that is located just beyond the eastern limb of the Moon, placing it on the far side from the Earth. It lies just to the east of the much larger crater Hirayama, and to the north of Ganskiy. The rim of this crater is worn, and is somewhat lower in the northern half. The inner walls are uneven slopes that lead down to the interior floor. Three small craters lie on the floor, with a joined pair located to the north of the midpoint and the other along the southwest inner wall. The floor is otherwise relatively level and featureless.
