Otto von Habsburg, children addresses
 

Hi,

I would like to send a condolense letter to each of the children. Does anyone know where to find their mail addresses?

Walburga Countess Douglas surely has a mail adress on her entry at the webpage of the Swedish parliament.

Andrea Countess Neipperg can be reached via the webpage of her husband's winery "Weingut Graf Neipperg" in Schwaigern/Wuerttemberg.

Surely Archdukes Karl and Georg have webpages, too.

How sad! I hoped he will live till 100.

Rest in Peace...

I´m shocked. Rest in peace :rose::imperialaustria:

Oh!! So sad! I was admiring him a lot!!!

Rest in Peace!

I hope he will be burried at Capucines in Vienna!

May he Rest in Peace.

Rest in Peace
Sorry ,I have a question as far as I have very poor knowledge in the matter of Austrian history,was he a descendant of Empress Sissi?

Rest in Peace.:sad:
Like fandesacs, I admired him a lot. He was a symbol, and his death is the end of an era, indeed.

RIP :sad:

A wonderful man and a great witness of his time.

Ottos grand-grand-grandmother (did I counted right?) was Archduchess Sophie, Sisis aunt. But Otto is not in Sisis direct bloodline.

I'm really sad for him. It's the end of an era too. Rest in peace.

Only one Child of Empress Zita and Emperor Charles of Austria is still alive : Archduke Felix.
HR& IH Archduke Otto lives nearly one Century ; he assisted his Parents Coronation , the Exile in Madeira , The Emperor's death, and his Mother best support for years.
I really hope he will be buried in Vienna where all the Habsbourg are and hope that his late wife Archduchess Regina will have their place there too.

:sad: sad news . May he rest in peace:rose2:

May HI & RH otto Von Hapsburg rest in peace ::flowers:: ::flowers:: ::flowers:: such an amazing bloodline may he RIP

He was a decendent of Marie antoinette's brother was he not? And also Leopold HRE ( holy roman emperor)

Hi,

Very sad news indeed...

I also hoped he would live till 100 years; but thankfully, he died in his sleep and I hope did not suffer near the end.

He was a credit to his parents, to Austria and to Europe...

R.I.P. Otto
