Rupprecht was born in Munich, the eldest son of Ludwig III, the last King of Bavaria, and of Archduchess Maria Theresia of Austria-Este, niece of Duke Francis V of Modena. He commanded the German Sixth Army at the outbreak of World War I in Lorraine . Rupprecht lost his chance to rule Bavaria when it became a republic in the revolutions that followed the war. Rupprecht was opposed to the regime of Nazi Germany and was forced into exile in Italy in 1939. In October 1944, when Germany occupied Hungary, Rupprecht evaded arrest but his wife and children were captured. In April 1945 they were moved to the Dachau concentration camp, where they were liberated by the United States Army. - RE - REALI - ROYALTY - nobili - BAVIERA - portrait - ritratto - german nobility - decorazioni militari - medals - decorations - military uniform - divisa uniforme militare - NOBILITY - NOBILI - Nobiltà - REALI - ROYALTY - BAVIERA - Bavaria - GERMANIA - GERMANY - LUXENBURG - LUSSENBURGO - moustache - baffi - Crown Prince - Rupert ---- Archivio GBB
