Commemoration on Madeira Island
On 1 April 1922, Charles I (IV) Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary, father of Otto von Habsburg, died in Funchal, the capital of the Portuguese island of Madeira. On the occasion of the 100th anniversary commemoration series, our Foundation, in cooperation with the Embassy of Hungary in Lisbon and local organizers, presented a roll-up exhibition of nine panels in English. A Portuguese version of this was also made available for the public in the form of a brochure.

In Memoriam William de Gelsey
Today we say a final farewell in the Matthias Church to William de Gelsey, who died on February 26, 2021 at the age of 100. In addition to personal appreciation, we also commemorate him here, on the website of our Foundation, since in the early eighties he was the one who tried to promote Otto von Habsburg’s entry into Hungary.
