Louis is crowned in Forchheim on February 4, 900.
This is the earliest German royal coronation about which records are known to exist.
Louis is of a weak personal constitution, often sick, and with his young age, the reins of government are entirely in the hands of others, the nobles and bishops.
Indeed, the coronation is probably a result of the fact that there is little Louis can gain at the expense of the nobles.
Louis will also inherits Lotharingia with the death of his elder illegitimate half-brother, Zwentibold, in 900.
