Scouting
Otto von Habsburg and scouting
Otto von Habsburg emphasised on several occasions how much he appreciated the activities of the Scout Movement. On the occasion of the 90th anniversary of the 1933 World Jamboree in Gödöllő, we present our namesake’s connection to scouting by looking through the legacy in the care of our Foundation.
Tales about the Crown Prince
Several historical and political writings have been published in various languages about the life and career of Otto von Habsburg, while his figure has also been immortalised in many literary fictions. Following the coronation of the king in 1916, young Otto inspired a multitude of stories. On the occasion of Children’s Day, we present a selection from the last year of the Monarchy and the interwar period.
