Victoria said at her speech:
Thank you for the beautiful gift. This magnolia plant may still be small. But it holds great significance as a symbol of the shared history of our two countries.
Cut from the tree that King Oscar II planted here 119 years ago, it is a living link between the past, the present and the future.
I look very much forward to bringing this gift home to my daughter, Princess Estelle, and to help her plant it in the garden of our home.
There, at the Haga palace, it will stand to remind her of her family history and of the long-standing friendship between France and Sweden. (...).
I look forward to the day when I will return. I can’t wait to show this beautiful place to our daughter, Princess Estelle, and her younger brother, Prince Oscar.
H.K.H. Kronprinsessans tal i Parc Beaumont i samband med besök till Pau, Frankrike, måndagen den 8 oktober 2018 - Sveriges Kungahus
The King, Queen, Crown Princess and Prince Daniel visited Pau in southern France. In the city, Jean Baptiste Bernadotte, born 200 years ago, became the king of Sweden and Norway under the name of Karl XIV Johan.
The King reinaugurated the newly renovated Bernadotte Museum (Musée Bernadotte), located in the house where Jean Baptiste Bernadotte was born in 1763. In connection with the reincarnation, the King left a gift in the form of a copy of Karl XIV Johan's adoptive act. After that, a guided tour of the museum was held by the museum manager Aurore Méchain.
The mayor of Pau, François Bayrou, welcomed the royal couple and the Crown Princess couple. In the city hall they also had the opportunity to meet the city's elected politicians and other invited guests.
In the afternoon, they visited castle Château de Pau where Henrik IV was born in 1553.
At the end of the day, the King, Queen, Crown Princess and Prince Daniel went to Parc Beaumont, which also Oskar II visited in the late 19th century. When Oskar II visited the park, he planted a magnolia, and upon this visit, the king took a symbolic delve of spade for an oak planted in the same place.
