H.R.H Duke Franz of Bavaria, whose family, as opponents of the Nazi Regime, were deportated as special prisoners to Sachsenhausen concentration camp, then to Flossenbürg and Dachau, recalls: "even for a child it was surprisingly clear. I thought to myself: You're not getting out of here alive".
Two hundred years ago, Ludwig I was crowned King of Bavaria – at a time of political uncertainty and economic weakness.
He saw his role not in terms of military power, but as a mission of cultural renewal. Under his reign, Munich developed into center of culture and scholarship of European standing, marked by visible symbols of a new identity: Königsplatz, the Glyptothek, Ludwigstraße, and the Bavaria.
At the same time, Ludwig pursued broad reforms: he strengthened the administration, promoted trade and infrastructure, joined the Zollverein, and re-established over a hundred monasteries.
Beginning on May 10, 2025, the Bavarian State Exhibition at the Haus der bayerischen Landesgeschichte in Regensburg will be dedicated to this remarkable monarch to highlight his achievements, his ideals, and a legacy that continues to shape the present.
No and he can't as there are no noble Titles anymore in Germany. Only the former royal Titles as Part of the surnameDoes the head of the family ever award nobility titles in their capacity as head of the Royal family, I know the Romanovs and Habsburg used to award titles to some relatives, am asking just for the possibility of the current head to award a title to his partner
