Consul General Nelson and Princess Gloria von Thurn und Taxis


December 9, 2006.
Princess Gloria of Thurn and Taxis welcomed Consul General Eric Nelson in the princely palace in Regensburg. The Thurn and Taxis family's history goes back to the early 12th century. Since 1812 the monastic buildings of the secularized Abbey of St. Emmeram have been the permanent residence of the princely family. It is one of the biggest inhabitated palaces in Europe. An over 250 year old history links the city of Regensburg with the princely house of Thurn und Taxis to the present day. During his visit to Regensburg the Consul General also gave an interview to editors of the local newspaper "Mittelbayerische Zeitung".
