On 5 June 2026, the Otto von Habsburg Foundation, in cooperation with the Embassy of Hungary in Madrid, organised an exhibition and a round-table discussion in Bilbao highlighting Otto von Habsburg’s years in the Basque Country and his family’s connections with the region.
At his wedding, in keeping with tradition, Otto von Habsburg was adorned not only by his formal attire: the historical orders and decorations pinned to his tailcoat conveyed a complex range of messages.
Several prominent public figures are associated with the wedding held in Nancy 75 years ago.
Seventy-five years ago, on the occasion of the wedding of Otto von Habsburg and Princess Regina of Saxe-Meiningen, the British Prime Minister sent them a signed copy of one of his own books.
