We were deeply honoured to welcome His Highness Prince Eduard von Anhalt to the Royal Ottoman Society’s world headquarters in 2023. Members, friends and seekers gathered for the occasion. In his warm greeting the Prince thanked the Society for its effort to “bring the order back to the people”, echoing our own aim of reviving heritage as a living, shared practice.
The ceremony continued with words of thanks and music. The refrain “Heil dir im Siegerkranz … Herr Kaiser, dir!” filled the hall, and Ottoman spirituality and European royal tradition met in mutual respect and celebration.
