Kuka naimisissa Karl Theodor zu Toerring-Jettenbach?

Karl Theodor Graf zu Toerring-Jettenbach genannt Toto (* 22. September 1900 in Winhöring; † 14. Mai 1967 in München) war ein bayerischer Unternehmer.

Princess Elizabeth of Greece and Denmark (Greek: Ελισάβετ; 24 May 1904 – 11 January 1955) was a Greek and Danish princess who became Countess of Törring-Jettenbach upon marrying Bavarian count Carl Theodor of Törring-Jettenbach.

The second of three daughters of Prince Nicholas of Greece and Denmark and Grand Duchess Elena Vladimirovna of Russia, Princess Elizabeth spent her childhood between the Kingdom of Greece and the Russian Empire. However, the First World War and the divisions it brought to Greece forced the teenager and her family into exile in Switzerland between 1917 and 1920. Returning to her country after the restoration of King Constantine I, she was banished once again by the proclamation of the Second Hellenic Republic in 1924.

Settled in Paris with her parents and sisters, the princess then undertook numerous trips that took her to visit her extended family in the United Kingdom, Italy, Yugoslavia, Romania, and Germany. Penniless and single, the princess sold her image to an American cosmetics brand. After unsuccessful attempts at courtships with the Prince of Wales, the Prince of Piedmont, Prince Nicholas of Romania, and Lord Ivor Spencer-Churchill, Elizabeth married Count Carl Theodor of Törring-Jettenbach, head of a high-profile Bavarian house, in 1934. The couple then settled between Munich and Winhöring, where they had two children, Hans Veit (born 1935) and Helene (born 1937).

At the time of Elizabeth's arrival in Germany, Adolf Hitler had just established his dictatorship, and although the princess and her husband never joined the Nazi Party, they felt its full influence. Used for their family ties to the Prince Regent of Yugoslavia and the Duke of Kent, husbands of Elizabeth's sisters, the Törrings were required to support the Führer's policies together with some other relatives, which led to tensions during the Second World War.

Isolated from her family after the Third Reich's invasion of Yugoslavia (1941), Elizabeth emerged weakened from the global conflict, but nevertheless regained her place within the European royalty. Suffering from cancer, she died in 1955 and her remains were buried in the Törring family mausoleum in Winhöring.
