A gift from Ambrose Balajthy Júlia
Our Foundation owes a lot to an outstanding representative of the Hungarian American community, Dr. Eugene Megyesy, who lives in Denver. This time, he brought us to Budapest some interesting documents of Otto von Habsburg’s visits to Denver and his network of contacts there. The photos are from Ambrose Balajthy Júlia, whose mother was the sister of Etienne Perényi, a prominent figure in the Hungarian colony in Denver and a friend of Otto von Habsburg.
Kick-off by the Archduke on the Basque coast
An interesting story led to the meeting between the MTK football team and Otto von Habsburg in 1923. It finally took place in the small Basque village of Lequeitio on the Atlantic coast, where the footballers played a demonstration match on the beach in honour of the young heir to the throne and the royal family.
