Funeral of Prince Johann Georg in Sigmaringen

The funeral service of Prince Johann Georg von Hohenzollern, who passed away on March 2, took place today privately at the Hedinger Kirche in Sigmaringen, Germany.

Only family and close friends attended the service, with the Prince’s immediate family arriving via the church’s back entrance to avoid the eyes of the media gathered at the front. These included the King and Queen of Sweden and Prince Carl Philip, who arrived with Princess Birgitta, Johann Georg’s widow.

Others in attendance were Karl Friedrich, Prince von Hohenzollern and Andreas, Prince of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha.

Meanwhile, in Stockholm at the same time as the funeral, a ceremony took place at the Riddarholmskyrkan as Prince Johann Georg was a member of the Order of the Seraphim.
