So apparently there was a certain Concert Princesse Kira.

List of Princes...

So apparently there was a certain Concert Princesse Kira.
Lots of German princes. The last one is Georg von Prussia. I have no idea for the others, I let the specialist do their job...

Thank you for the pics Idriel, and the challenge. With the assistance of my magnifying glass (to decipher the tiny captions) and an Almanach de Gotha, here is the list:

row 1
1. HI&RH George Friedrich, Prince of Prussia, Head of the Imperial and Royal House of Prussia, Head of the House of Hohenzollern.
2. HRH Princess Christa of Prussia; Mr xxx; HRH Princess Felicitas of Prussia (sisters)
3. probably HIllH Count Philip zu Castell-Rüdenhausen (son of Rupert below); Prince Lelie Nicolo Orsini
4. HH Duchess Donata of Oldenburg; HIllH Count Rupert zu Castell-Rüdenhausen
row 2
1. HSH Erbprinzessin (Hereditary Princess) Alexandra von Hohenzollern; HSH Erbprinz (Hereditary Prince) Karl Friedrich von Hohenzollern; HIllH Countess Alexandra zu Castell-Rüdenhausen (wife of Rupert above)
2. Prince Raimondo Orsini; his wife Pricess Katherine neé Bagration; and daughter Princess Luisa Eleonora Orsini
3. HRH Prince Franz Friedrich of Prussia and his wife HRH Princess Susann
4. HRH Princess Christa (again); Mrs xxx
row 3
1. HSH Albrecht, 3rd Fürst zu Castell-Castell; Mrs xxx
2. Count Bjorn Bernadotte (Mainu branch; ABBA lives on!)

Princess Kira of Prussia was the daughter of Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia, Head of the Imperial House. She was involved in cultural and artistic pursuits, and died last year. This concert was no doubt in tribute to her memory. I understand her daughter Kira-Maria is setting up a foundation in her mother's name.

Good, but can you read German?

Warren, I knew you would be the one up to the challenge, but I have to confess I doubted the depth of your knowledge (or rather the strength of your magnifying glass). Mia culpa, mia maxima culpa!

Well in case you want more, here an article about the party:

60. Wohltätigkeitskonzert der Prinzessin Kira von Preussen-Stiftung

Bei strahlendem Wetter fand am 24. September 2005 das
60. Wohltätigkeitskonzert der Prinzessin Kira von Preussen Stiftung auf der Burg Hohenzollern bei Hechingen statt.

Für das diesjährige Konzert wurden der russische Pianist Dimitri Vinnik und das Amira-Quartett aus München gewonnen, Preisträger zahlreicher Musikwettbewerbe im In- und Ausland. Mit großem Applaus wurden das Klavierkonzert A-Dur KV 414 von Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart und das Klavierkonzert F-Moll von Cesar Franck aufgenommen. [...]

The official king of Prussia lives in Australia... even though the family doesnt rule anymore i know the man who has the official documentation...

It will come out in the media in a few years time

 

[Warren]

The official king of Prussia lives in Australia... even though the family doesnt rule anymore i know the man who has the official documentation...

You will have to provide more information.
The Kaiser, Wilhelm II, was the last German Emperor and King of Prussia. His eldest son was Crown Prince Wilhelm. His eldest son predeceased his father in 1940, and had two daughters. Crown Prince Wilhelm's second son was Prince Louis Ferdinand, Head of the Imperial and Royal House of Prussia. His two eldest sons renounced their rights on their unequal marriages. Louis Ferdinand's third son, also named Prince Louis Ferdinand, died tragically in an accident during army manoeuvres in 1977. His only son, Georg Friedrich, Prince of Prussia, b 1976 is the current Head of the House and de juré King of Prussia.

Where is the Australian connection? And how can this person be the "official" King of Prussia when Georg Friedrich is the acknowledged and undisputed Head of the Hohenzollerns?

Any recent news on the..

Former Prussian royal families, I havent heard anything new about Prince Georg Friedrich. I also wanted to know if there was any news on the Hohenlohe-Oehringen family. I have also looked online and tried to find online magazines or newspapers about these 2 families, but can't seem to find anything on either. If someone would be kind to post links to magazines and newspapers where I could find regular information and newer pics on these 2 families, it would be greated appreciated. Thanks!

King Fernidad Frederick of Prussia is granted Official Royal Residence at Sans Souci

Now that King Fernidad Frederick of Prussia took over his family's Monarchy of Prussia, he moved into his Official Royal Residence at Sans Souci Palace in Potsdam, Germany. The people are satisfied with the outcome and King Fernidad Frederick of Prussia abolished the House of Hohenzollern to eliminate current competition. King Fernidad Frederick of Prussia then banished Prince Georg Friedrich of Prussia from all claims to the Prussian Monarchy.

Best Wishes, -King Fernidad Frederick of Prussia

Coup and counter coup

You can't declare the "abolition" of a family or a dynasty. Aren't you a Hohenzollern descendant? So haven't you just "abolished" yourself? What if George Friedrich launches a counter coup from Burg Hohenzollern supported by Hanoverian and Hessian mercenaries?

 

[Von Schlesian]

For goodness sake, this kind of malicious and intentional misinformation has gone too far. Sorry Ken, but game over. It's quite alright to be making a quick joke and then come clean and admit that it was such, but for the less critical members of the Royal Forums, who absorb an awful lot of information, you are misleading them entirely.
Warren is totally correct when saying you can't 'abolish' a family or Imperial and Royal House, it's simply ludicrous and beyond the power of legitimate heads of Royal Houses.
While I openly favour the establishment of a Constitutional Monarchy in Germany and the return of the Imperial and Royal House of Hohenzollern and the other German Royal, Ducal and Princely Houses, it is something quite unlikely due to the political stability the Bundesrepublik enjoys. However, the high regard in which the Wittlesbach family is held by Bavarians, and others around the world is certainly something to consider when thinking of how Germany would react to a proposal of restoration.

But, 'the people' (of whom you speak when you say they are 'satisfied'), would recognise the legitimate head of the Imperial and Royal House of Hohenzollern as just that - legitimate. Not only would the public acknowledge HIRH Prince Georg Friedrich as such, but the wealth of academics, royal scholars and related Royal families. They would never be 'satisfied' with the bogus originator of an image superimposed within a frame, who declares they enjoy Canadian citizenship.

Please, become a productive member of this site and contribute the acutal information researched and documented, or cease posting the highly misleading and false information altogether.

To the Administrator, Moderators and fellow TRF members, I apologise for the confrontation, but feel this has just gone too far.

 

[PreDoc]

I conduct scholarly research on the Prussian monarchy and this is one of the funniest things I have found to date on the internet. Hilarious blog too!

Thanks

[juliamontague]

"King Fernidad" is completely fake.
He posts this on all kind of Forums that talk about Royalty.

 

[Lindy]

Isn't this his cousin Victoria-Luise? I always thought that Cornelie-Cecile was mentally handicapped.

What is the current status of Cornelie-Cecile's disabilities? Where does she live and what does she do?

 

[Lindy]

Isn't this his cousin Victoria-Luise? I always thought that Cornelie-Cecile was mentally handicapped.

According to Netty:
Cornelie Cécile is, to quote Marlene Eilers Koenig 'Severely retarded'. Sam Dotson once described it like this (well he is a doctor): 'became neurologically handicapped as the result of a perinatal infection, encephalitis caused by cytorhegalovinus'.

 

[RussianHistoryBuff]

Is Prince Georgii Mikhailovich Romanov not the closet heir to the non-ruling Prussian throne? After all, his biological father is Louis Ferdinand Oskar Christian Princ of Prussia. Louis Ferdinand has been the Head of the House of Hohenzollern since 1994. If anyone can answer this question please feel free to send me the answer by way of e-mail.

Sorry, but way off. The current Head of the Hohenzollerns is Prince Georg Friedrich, the son of Prince Louis Ferdinand who was killed in an accident during army manoeuvres in 1977, and grandson of Prince Louis Ferdinand, Prince of Prussia (1907-1994).

Grand Duke Georgi (aka Prince Georg of Prussia) is at the tail end of the male descendents of Kaiser Wilhelm II. His father, Prince Franz Wilhelm, is the grandson of the Kaiser's youngest son Prince Joachim, who shot himself in 1920.

I assume that'd be cytomagalovirus. Not a pleasant critter.

 

[Dulce Elena]

I think it is funny now more than ever because we are seeing that democracy and republicanism are as flawed as monarchism (when they were supposed to be the answers)! I am curious, the world being how it is, what the popular style of government will be in the future? Politics is like fashion - the style changes with the times and with attitudes.


You can view the Vanity Fair article I scanned at this link:

It's very large! You can enjoy reading it, too

Is Prince Franz Friedrich an uncle of Prince Georg Friedrich?

Is Prince Franz Friedrich an uncle of Prince Georg Friedrich?

Here's the relationship:

Kaiser Wilhelm II - Wilhelm - Louis Ferdinand - Louis Ferdinand - GEORG FRIEDRICH (b 1976)
Kaiser Wilhelm II - Joachim - Karl Franz Joseph - FRANZ FRIEDRICH (b 1944)

To Russian

Corneli-Cecile was born mentally handicapped and I once read that she lives in a home for mental deseased people since years. The last photo of her was published I think on her mother´s second marriage with the Duke of Oldenburg.

I dont know if this has been posted, but the grandmother of Prince George Friedrich, Furstin Irene Castell-Rudenhausen passed away on December 16. Here is a link to the Preussen website where the announcement was posted:

There is another more recent of Georg Friedrich's sister, Cornelia Cecilia...she was actually born with a type of in utero encephilitis which is commonly tested for now, but was not known during her birth year. This actually caused the retardation. It's ashame because now this is treatable and preventable!

 

[sjetajiem]

Paul Duke of Oldenburg, a full cousin of Prince Georg Friedrich (his mother princess Cecile and Prince Georg Friedrich's father were brother and sister) became Roman Catholic, married a spanish lady Pilar Mendez de Vigo, and just got his first daughter and fourth child last week.

 

[Warren]

What Warren? You don't believe that guy from San Diego is the *real* head of the imperial Prussian house?! I just saw this guy's rant on another board and I'll tell you - he's a piece of work. What a trip! I guess he's harmless enough but he's definitely making a stupid @$$ out of himself You can see King Fernidad in action...

The guy from San Diego (who's name is Ken) is very well known to us, in fact he's been banned from the Forums.
Harmless? On the surface, yes, but there was another side, as we discovered.
