Andrea von Habsburg, Countess of Neipperg and eldest child of Otto von Habsburg, in response to the Foundation’s Christmas greetings and as a gift for the new year, has put together a small collection of precious items from her own family archive, which she thought should be part of our collection.
The special family photos and documents cover the last years of Emperor Charles IV, who died a hundred years ago, and the childhood and youth of Otto von Habsburg and his siblings.
In preparation for the anniversary of the death of the last Hungarian king and the 110th anniversary of the birth of our namesake, Archduchess Andrea’s consignment is both academically useful and topical. The processing of the collection has already begun.
