Heinrich, Hereditary Prince of Hesse
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Heinrich Donatus, Hereditary Prince of Hesse (Heinrich Donatus Philipp Umberto) (b. 17 October 1966) is the eldest son and heir of Moritz, Landgrave of Hesse, head of the House of Hesse and his former wife, Princess Tatjana of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg.
Prince Heinrich's father became the head of the Hesse-Kassel line on the death of his father Philip on in 1980, thus becoming head of the entire House of Hesse. In 1989, his uncle Prince Wolfgang of Hesse died, whereby Maurice inherited his rights to the much earlier defuncted monarchy of Finland.
Hereditary Prince Heinrich married Countess Floria Franziska Marie-Luisa Erika of Faber-Castell in a civil ceremony in Wiesbaden on 25 April 2003 and again in a religious ceremony on 17 May 2003 in Kronberg. They have no children.
