The BRUTAL Execution Of Princess Mafalda - The Princess Killed In A Concentration Camp

- One of the most shocking parts of the Second World War was when an Italian Princess was killed inside one of Hitler's concentration camps. Princess Mafalda of Savoy was the second eldest child of the King of Italy, and during the Second World War her husband Prince Philipp of Hesse became a close acquaintance of Adolf Hitler. Philipp worked as a go between for Hitler and Mussolini who had formed the Axis alliance and worked closely during World War 2. They were also good friends, but Philipp was not entirely trusted by Hitler. Hitler did not like Princess Mafalda, as he thought she was behind Mussolini's eventual downfall and ousting from power in Italy.
It was also thought by Hitler that Mafalda was involved in the killing of Boris III of Bulgaria, who it's thought died from poisoning after a visit from Mafalda. Hitler then fell out with Philipp and both the Prince and Princess were thrown into concentration camps. Princess Mafalda was taken to Buchenwald Concentration Camp, a site where over 50,000 people were killed during the conflict. The conditions were terrible, but one day the camp was bombed by the allies. Mafalda was injured and she suffered burns to her arm. After a few days the SS left her to succumb to infection, and then amputated her arm however Mafalda would never regain consciousness after losing lots of blood.
It's been considered that the SS and the Nazis did not operate in time intentionally, forcing Princess Mafalda to succumb to her infection and her injuries, when her life could have been saved earlier. This in a sense was a death sentence, but she remains the Princess who was killed inside of a Nazi Concentration Camp.

Mafalda's son Otto von Hesse, or Ottone d'Assia in Italian, was a professor of archeology in Venice University specialising in the Longobards in Italy. The library of the Faculty of Archeology was in Palazzo Bernardo, the same building where I rented a small apartment during the 1980s and 90s when I worked at La Fenice, the Venice opera house. I often used to have dinner in a little restaurant nearby and so did Otto, and when it was crowded they put us at the same table. The first time we met he asked me where I was from, I said I was English and he replied "Oh, so was my great.grandmother. She was Queen Victoria." We often used to meet for a drink in the evening but he never talked much about his parents, only his nephew who lived in Munich and occasionally visited him in Venice. Otto died a few years ago of cancer.
Lively story, I just wondered what happened to her children, if they survived. Sounds like at least one did and had a good life.
Deep, what an acquaintance. And what are the chances? Did you know the story of his mother then or are you just reading and learning of it now?
Uh huh.
@@teijaflink2226 Of course they did.
Always a reminder of how tiny the world is when people meet up like this. So important that these stories be told over and over and over again until people understand to heed the warnings. Thanks for sharing.
My late father was one of the troops that liberated Buchenwald. He was only 22 at the time and spoke of the shock that he and the other troops felt, to the point of being silent, at seeing what the Nazis had done to their victims.
Lord bless him and his brothers and sisters in arms!!!🙏😢
God bless your father !♥️
@@mauricedavis2160 Thank you very much! He lived a rich, full life and I'm glad that we had him as long as we did!
@@Lifeisasecret- Thank you. You are very kind!
Your late father was one of the first US Army personnel to enter Buchenwald.
Let's stay with the truth, please ...
Buchenwald was the concentration camp whose prisoners liberated themselves ... it was the only camp where that happened.
I had not heard of Princess Mafalda. Thank you for bringing her story forward. We can never forget the atrocities that took place under the Nazi’s.
And her husband was thick with them, and SHE benefitted.
I don't think I will ever understand war and how cruel humans can be. Horrible things are still being done in the name of war and to think we are only animals and suppose to be the most intelligent.😢
@@honeybunch5765 sadly your words are so true. It's disturbing to hear about animals being tortured and starved, and then how people's minds can be so vicious and cruel towards other human beings! What can possibly make them be that way... Horrible just horrible 💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏
✝️☦️✡️🔯🛐
Oh, but we HAVE forgotten. It's already happening again. Take a good, honest look around. That doesn't mean to watch the official news outlets. They're lying to you.
@@badabing9143
They don't have a conscience.
Thank you for telling her story, she deserved a voice.
♥️♥️♥️
Omg....all you Nqzi sympathizers. SHE BENEFITTED FROM TYE NAZIS.
Why,because she was lucky enough to be born into Royalty???.. That's bull in my book.you should have to earn fame and power..so,she bedded down With Leopold, big deal..or was it Philip?.. Who knows, who cares.its all bull shit anyways
Yes, a voice...like the millions of others killed in the concentration camps deserve a voice.
It's so disturbing to me that commenters on these platforms can be so cruel and heartless. Not SURPRISING in today's world............ just disturbing and disappointing.
20 years ago the city council of Rome dedicated a park avenue to princess Mafalda ("martyr of nazism"). I was there olding the banner of the former royal house. At the end of the ceremony, a tall, old man, with glasses, approached to me saying "grazie!", "thanks". He was the son of princess Mafalda.
I had never heard of Princess Mafalda. Thank you for telling her story. It is terrifying how humans can commit such atrocities against eachother. These stories should all be brought to light, as well as all other injustices, to remind us all of what we must not allow, to learn from history and make sure it is not ever repeated.
I've never heard of her but what a very sad and tragic ending. I'm glad she's been mentioned. Stories like hers need to be told and remind us not to let this ever happen again.
I agree
It should have never happened in the FIRST place, much less AGAIN. And she and her family benefitted from the millions killed. All I need to see is a photo of ONE starving concentration camp child, and I lose any sympathy.
@@mimibee626
Absolutely!
I think, STORYS of EVERYBODY should be told, or is a princess MORE imported than a regular non- princess mother or father's life......
If you've gotten VACCINATED, you're letting it happen again. If you're wearing a mask, you're letting it happen again. Wake up, world. Wake up.
This the first time I heard of Princess Mafalda of Savoy. Thank you for telling us her story. A rather tragic one at that. I don’t particularly care for her husband. He brought all this injustice upon himself and his family. I can’t imagine the pain of their children having to grow up without their parents. Learning exact fate of their parents. Especially their mother.
R.I.P. Princess Mafalda of Savoy💐
Must have truly been the most horrific time in history. How anyone could treat other humans like this. Beyond any understanding of being even somewhat human.
HOUSE OF SAVOY. 🇮🇹👑🇮🇹. 2021.
@@billrobbins5874 In European history.
@@elainemd313 Appreciate it, thank you.
@@billrobbins5874 TY for caring about the big picture.
Sad thing is ppl dont learn from history and we repeat it.
As one saying goes, the only thing we learn from history is that we don't learn anything from history. I repeat that as someone who has made a hobby of learning as much history as I can. I never tire of learning about it.
Sad for everyone who perished in Nazi camps. Prayers for the departed souls. 🙏
Prayers for souls? Get a grip!
And in other places too
Not only was Buchenwaldt, it was Sobibor, Auschwitz-Birkenau, Monovitz, all the three were the same complex centre of killing, Bergen Belsen Ravensbrük only for woman, and different massacres were did, like Babi Yar, Rumbula, and in different forests, nearby cities, were jews were taken and killed there, from ghettos gatered
@@jimbojet8728 do not troll and mock other people's faith. That is sacred to people. be decent!
@@mercedesdemner3600 pure fantasy.
This shit will happen again soon. Not remembering the past will kill us all.
The great segregation has begun purge will follow.
It’s already happening in China
TRUTH
It's already happening and as nothing is really happening to stop it, things are only going to get worse before they get better.
@@fugf1623 Not only in China.
The callousness and brutality of human beings is unique on Earth. To far too many, this brutality is embraced. Princess or pauper, no one is safe from the depravity of the evil that lurks among us.
Chimps are fundamentally more callous and brutal than humans, they just lack the imagination to commit the kind of massive atrocities that humans are capable of. Dolphins are fond of gang rape and ethnically cleansing pilot whales, but thankfully they lack opposable thumbs, so they can't build weapons and gas chambers.
You'll always find its a minority - don't forget that the victims were also human: atrocities have been co-ordinated throughout history by psychopaths, megalomaniacs and sociopaths - these make up not more than 5% of the human race. It's never a good idea to blame yourself and all other innocent human beings for the actions of psychopaths. Put the blame firmly where it lies - with the guilty.
Avoid religion in your early life and as soon as you are able rid the planet of all ultimately cruel and evil religions. Which should dispose of all ridiculous gods. Then we’re in for a chance of decency in the world.
@@jimbojet8728 Stalin was an athiest, but he managed to murder more people than anyone else in history. There's plenty to criticize in religion, but they aren't the root of the problem.
@@dev-debug I have plenty more where that come from. You’re undoubtedly a ‘god botherer’, and aren’t usually encumbered by the truth I’m sure, is that why why my comment hurts?
The book "Royals and the Riech by John Petropoulos is a bio of Mafalda's husband Prince Philip and brother Christoper whose wife was a sister of Prince Philip who married Queen Elizabeth II
Poor girl, I'm glad she didn't live to see what they'd done to her - Oh God, is it really THAT easy to lose all sense of decency, to actually find unspeakable cruelty enjoyable? The more you hear about the followers of the Nazis, the more you have to say that it wasn't just the hierarchy who were guilty, the 'joy' of power and cruelty spread like a disease!
The book "Hitler's Willing Executioners" delves into how ordinary everyday people in Germany and elsewhere were participants in that horror in various ways. It is disheartening to know that such evil can emerge and, as you say, spread like a disease.
Bastard's 😡 still exist like that today and they'd do it again given the opportunity and what they see as the right time.
Apparently it is... and before too long we may all be facing that evil again, on our own soil this time. The dehumanizing is already underway.
Just look at the US today.. trump and his cronies absolutely used the nazi playbook in their power play and see what division in a nation can achieve.
@@CaliKiwi-
I think you have no idea. Trump was your last hope of avoiding a repeat of this horror. Do you not understand they are creating this situation again? It is not Trump behind the ones doing it, it is big tech and big pharma pushing a fake agenda. Experiments and death have returned. Trump? You will be begging for Trump's free world you fool.
Mafalda and histories like hers should be known.
To me every person in those camps stories are just as important as her's.😔
Disgraceful and despicable.
You said it right and truly.
Yes she was.
I’m so sorry. I’d never heard of Princess Mafalda before today. What a horrific way to die. The Nazis behaviour is unforgivable. I shall keep her in my heart forever and I shall share her life and story with those who are willing to listen.♥️
The behaviour of the Nazis unfortunately is not uncommon in the annals of humankind.
I’m an avid student of WW2 history but I have never heard this story. Thank you
Since 2019 WW3 is started didn't you notice? Neither did the world in 1932-1933.
I am too. This is the first I’ve heard of this story. So sad.
Comme vous êtes passionnés les états unis et l'Angleterre voulez se partagé la France cela été un accord avec le général de Gaulle quand la France serrait serait libéré regardez sur youtube moi cela fait longtemps que je le savais il y a d'autres histoires comme l'Angleterre a essayé d'acquérir la Grèce après la libération
In Italy there are many books and historical documents about her. I don't know if they also exist in other languages but she is remembered with affection by the Italian people and schools, streets, squares, hospitals, parks, even some famous dishes, a rose and an international peace award are dedicated to her.
@@AriaLuminosa vous fatiguée pas je ne comprends rien
Very sad. I’m forever learning of WWII tragedies. The list seems almost inexhaustible.
Made me teary eyed. I knew another man who was in camp and saw her. RIP Princess butterfly.
I had never heard of Mafalda. This was a very interesting video.
Me neither...so strange...
Instead in Italy she is remembered with statues, squares, streets, schools, stamps, hospitals, parks, an international peace award, numerous books, documentaries and even a TV miniseries. There are also many gourmet dishes that have her name and even a type of rose. Princess Mafalda is certainly loved and remembered by the Italians.
Excellent but sad video. Thank you for this very valuable history lesson. I never knew royalty was imprisoned in the camps. I have always wondered why the Danish royal family who were captured were never sent to a concentration camp.
After Italy signed a peace treaty with the Allied Italians were regarded as traitors ,by the Nazi. and they reserved a special treatment for them Italian military captured never had the status of war prisoners but were considered as traitors and dealt with as such.
@@cerliezio Thank you for sharing this information.
My Italian grandmother named my mom Mafalda. I would ask her where she got this name she would say she named.her after Princess Mafalda. My mom was born in 1929 died in 1970 so it was an unlucky name for her.
41 was too young to passed. RIP.
I never thought of royals being imprisoned. Thanks for keeping this part of history alive.
She died in a concentration camp a bomb fell near her Barack’s her arm got damaged she died of gangrene they operated too late and she had her arm amputated she was left too die unattended. Very sad
Um, yeah....we all watched the video. She was STILL treated better than the other concentration camp prisoners, whose mothers and children were burned alive in ovens. And her husband was given officer's food. Tell it to God.
Yes a lot of people innocent people died in the concentration camps
Ami Bombs.
@@mimibee626 don't downplay murder no matter who it is. It's a disgusting trait.
I believe any type of murder is evil- not sure why people are posting like it is a pissing contest of who suffered more. Disgusting.
Thanks for the posting . It’s important that we understand history’s !, To all the amazing people who fell as victims to these barbaric times .
What happened to her children? Great video. I never heard of her. Thank you for the history
Thank you so much for telling her story. Her mother Jelena (Elena) was Montenegrinian princess and she was also a descendant of Nazi oponents. Hitler thought her husband couldn't be trusted but her origins were also the reason she was in Buchenwald. Her children were saved by the Vatican and I think one of her sisters, Yolanda survived. She died in 1986. As a child my grandfather thought me about Mafalda's family from Montenegro but he never told me what actually happened to Jelena's daughters. This was terrible to learn. I believed that they had long and prosperous lifes being half Italians and Catholics. Jelena, her mother was Ortodox Chirstian and I am not sure did she convert to Catholicism. That was the faith (concentracion camps) of many in Eastern Europe. My grandfather was in Dachau.
*After writing this comment I've looked them up and found that the only one that had met terrible faith was Mafalda. All the others, her parents and syblings, have surrvived the WW2 and many went to Egypt and lived there in exile.
They were pure evil in those camps. God rest her soul
So she was complicit with everthing going on. Then she was a victim of the evil she was complicit too. She felt safe until she wasn't! This is the lesson.
Agreed. I think 99% of the comments here miss this fact.
I have been a seeker of historical knowledge since I was young, instilled by my fathers interest in antiques and treasure hunting. I have read and seen many things pertaining to the Second World War but, your story telling has brought into light many facts and peoples who’s experiences I was ignorant too. Thank you and very, very well done.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Yes this is a very bad story . I have never heard of her. Unfortunately things like this happen to often in times of war. The human race can very cruel. Also we never seam to learn from history.
Interesting story. I have never heard of it. All of the deaths in Buchenwald were tragic and sad!
It warms my heart that Hitler could not trust anyone. He was paranoid and afraid so much of the time!
He was the biggest coward too.
The thing is that although we all rightfully are disgusted with Hitler we must not forget that many of these cruel psychos would have continued even if Hitler died earlier. Not all of these sick ideas came from him, these cruel horrid humans tortured and murdered their prisoners because they wanted too.😣
@@honeybunch5765 You are so right!! When our soldiers liberated the concentration camps, the guards there thought that the soldiers would join them...at first.
My uncle was part of the army who liberated Belsen. He was only 20, so he was terribly traumatised by what he saw.
"She was operated on inside of the newly set up brothel inside of the camp."
Even for Nazi Germany, that's a dark turn.
Imposing medical procedures on people regardless of their consent is coming back into fashion.
Another probably irony was if Dr Hans Munch was in service at where Mafalda was imprisoned; she probably would've been saved; Munch was that one 'Nazi' doctor who did his best to at least try to save innocents, Jewish or not. RIP sir
@@Kelly14UK I love how much a simple vaccine infuriates you big babies. Lmao. No one is forcing you. You don't have to get it. 🙂
@@anthonymaslow798"no one is forcing you"? Do you have your head in the fucking sand???
@@Noscams00 Shill. Ignore.
If nothing else, WW1 and 2 should have taught us that Mafalda's death, though tragic, was no more tragic than the gassing of any old Jewish woman or Gypsy child. The loss of a peasant was as horrible to God as the murder of a princess
The mere difference is that Mafalda was a link between the two major WWII fascist forces and the other people in the camps weren't.
@@geoh7777 ....You're right by describing that as a "mere difference," because it's really unimportant. As a matter of fact, it meant so little to Hitler that he threw her in a death camp. But that wasn't my point in any way. I was responding to the narrator's harping on the tragedy, the sadness, and the brutal aspects of her death. My point being that her murder, gruesome as it was, was no more horrible than the gassing of a Gypsy peasant.
I do however big time enjoy the channel as well as the comments back from people like you who rightly see these peripheral swaths of history as not only interesting but important. Good stuff.
@@David-mh2jn If the vid had been about the murder of a peasant within the camps, where the narrator harped on about the sadness, and the brutal aspects of her death, would you have posted that the gypsy peasant's murder was no more horrible than Mafalda's or a rich persons murder within the camp? Or do you just believe that a story about an individual has no place in the story of the camps?
I believe that the coverage of the victims of the concentration camps is unbalanced, and Gypsy, political inmates etc, are not covered enough. Having said that, this vid was interesting because it was out of the ordinary and highlighted a little known and very unusual prisoner. That might offend your social politics but the vid is just as relevant as any other concentration camp vid.
@@blowingfree6928 ..... Her death was notable and newsworthy in a way that would stand out from others, true. I not only enjoyed the piece, I am a subscriber, but my point stands that he seems to indicate that her death was more tragic than others. Just my opinion and we can certainly disagree, but we absolutely agree on the quality of the program and it's importance
And many more prisoners of war and the soldiers who were captured.
Art 55 years of age. The more I learn about the atrocities of the nazis. The more disgusted I am with their ideology, and complete inhumanity.
I feel exactly the same way. Although the Nazi war criminals are long dead today, their names deserve to go down in infamy, bitter reproach, and utter shame for all time on earth. The same thing goes for all other evildoers throughout history.
I'm so glad this channel exists. There are so many stories from the past I've never heard about and I've been reading history books since I was a boy. I've got nothing on you lot. You must have been taking in info from the womb...
Wow! I learned something new today. Thank you! What happened to her husband?
He died in Rome on October 25th 1980.
@@Wonky-Donkey Thank you!
@@Wonky-Donkey So he lived a full life, as opposed to his wife, dying in a concentration camp.
I never even knew that a princess would also be killed by the nazi's in a concentration camp
Nothing was sacred to the Nazis, not even a member of royalty from a nation occupied by Hitler's Third Reich. They did not care whom they imprisoned and killed in their "murder factories".
What a terribly sad story…..I hadn’t heard of her either!
Thank you for posting 😢😢😢…….🌹🌹🌹🙏🙏🙏🙏🇬🇧
I have never heard her story before. Thank you for making this video and telling her story.
Very interesting, informative and worthwhile video.
Another excellent and tragic episode Sir, thank you for shedding some illumination on an little known subject!!!🙏😢
Thank you for bringing forward stories that otherwise would not be known.
Sad indeed. So sorry for all that had to endure such terrible fates. 🛐
Cruelty of the Nazis never fails to surprise
Why don't you say it loud it was German??
Thank you for sharing.
Thank You. Their stories should not be forgotten
So many precious lives lost with such indignity, humiliation and in excruciating pain...
And justice for the mass killings was never ever served.

I came across your channel by accident and I am glad I did,it's been very interesting and informative keep up the good work 👏
It's sickening to realize the depths to which supposedly educated people will sink .🇬🇧
Not only sickening but scary and all too often tragic, not to mention infuriating.
The ship named in honor of Princess Mafalda of Saboya sunken nearby Montevideo (Uruguay) . This tragedy was described and compared to the life of Princess Mafalda by the Argentinian writer Ovidio Lagos who founded The newspaper entitled La Capital de Rosario, Rosario City Argentina.
After reading this biographical book, Italy treacherous two times the Germans, in the two world war.
The murder of Princess Mafalda was the awful revenge by Hitler.

Brutal execution. more like lack of medical care.
This was definitely something new from WW2!!
Who knew? Ofcourse they let her die. In my years Ive never heard or read of such deliberate people,so calculated,unfeeling and evil!!!
That's why there's a Hell.
@@catholiccrusader5328 no there isn't
The Japanese army and navy did many horrific things, too! They were especially brutal in their treatment of captured Allied airmen and members of special forces, such as commandos.
In the case of other Allied prisoners of war, the Japanese killed many of them by starvation, bashings, and forced labour.
They were particularly calculated, unfeeling and evil towards their enemies prior to and during WW2, exemplified by these: the Japanese gained notoriety for strafing downed airmen trying to descend to safety in their parachutes; The Rape of Nanking (1937), also known as the Nanjing Massacre; The Bangka Island Massacre (1942): Slaughter of Australian Army Nurses; The Bataan Death March (1942); The Sandakan Death March (1945); Murder and cannibalism on the Kokoda Track (1942); Conscripting women for sexual slavery in Japanese Army brothels (1937-1945); Mutilation and murder of Dutch civilians in Borneo; and Murder and cannibalism of captured American pilots. On March 20th, 1943, the commander of the Japanese First Submarine Force at Truk issued an order to all of his submarine commanders to murder all crew members of merchant ships after their ships had been sunk and relevant information obtained. This order to murder survivors of merchant vessels had been officially sanctioned and prescribed at the highest level of the Imperial Japanese Navy, emanating from the Japanese government itself.
Other official sources state that from early 1943, Japanese submarine crews routinely murdered all survivors of merchant ships sunk by them. Lifeboats were machine-gunned and rammed, and survivors in the water were machine-gunned.
To add to these horrors, following the war, successive Japanese governments refused to acknowledge its war guilt and war crimes.
To learn more, consult my references: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_war_crimes or www.pacificwar.org.au/WarCrimeIntro.html.
@@rallymaster001 Now for irony; some Jewish people in Japanese custody, apparently even Hitler's direct orders to have them transported to Nazi Germany; those same Japanese behind Unit 731, said 'no'. For whatever the reason; murdering Jews was something said IJA/IJN refused to do. And there was a tiny part of Shanghai where the local Jewish people were interned, due in part to the Japanese refusal to intentionally murder them. Said 'ghetto' (original meaning of that descriptor) was off limits for at least direct attacks.
It was to the point that Israel bequeathed a special award; something using the word 'Righteous', to Japan.
You must have missed the stories of Stalin's gulags.
I'd never heard any of this! Fascinating, thank you.
Felt very sad ! What a tragic end for a princess . Good presentation .
May HRH Princess Mafalda rest in peace and May GOD grant Her love and peace in the eternal heaven!!
I never heard of her. Thank you for telling her story.
So very sad. May they all RIP 🙏🙏🙏
Ohh thanks for sharing this story...
Such a very tragic ending of a beautiful Princess..
Sending her hair to her family was Very Horrid too...
Those Camps where beyond evil😯
This video leaves too many questions unanswered. Was she guilty of the things the Nazis thought? Probably not any poisonings, but did she have a role in Mussolini's downfall or was she an ardent Nazi who was falsely accused? What about her husband? Was he also falsely accused or was he involved in Mussolini's downfall? What ultimately happened to him?
The video does leave a lot of questions unanswered, however, if you read the title of the video, you will see that it is only dealing with the death of Mafalda not her possible culpability in the accusations against her nor the actions and ultimate fate of her spouse or children. It would be good if he followed this up with more information on this couple and their possible political involvements.
@@cheriefoley7434 you are allowed on youtube to disclose information thats not in the title
Why don't you just go look up a legitimate source of history to find out the answers to the questions you have, rather than criticize the video? The video did an excellent job of highlighting something many, if not most of us, did not know happened. If we are curious enough to know more, we just have to go seek out the answers.
Very sad ending,but I noticed in some of her pictures of her aura. This light around her,it maybe in black and white but she had a beautiful aura around her as she was a beautiful person too.
A Film made in 2006, in Italian called ,Mafalda Di Savoia, when he abdicated he abandoned not only Italy ,but his own daughter.thank you for posting this video
Mafalda is an Argentine comic strip written and drawn by cartoonist Quino in 1964.
Mafalda represents an intelligent and idealistic 6 years old girl with a big heart ❤️ I love Mafalda ❤️
What a beautiful lady.
May god have mercy on the Germans souls!
thanks
Not all Nazis were German. One infamous example was Leonardo Conti, apparently he was Swiss.
And not all Germans were Nazis at that time, either. In fact, some who joined the Nazi party did not agree with the twisted ideology of Aryanism or swallow the toxic calumny of Anti-Semitism.
May god have mercy on her soul too as she went along with them until they turned on her.
And people say Satan doesn't exist...
Who's Stan?
Ikr . Not for long .
I've never heard of this Italian Princess leave alone being held in a concentration camp.

Excelente BIO!!!!!! Saludos desde Argentina. CONGRATULATIONS
Execution? No she was not executed get your history right
The fact/clickbait on this channel is kind of Trash. I just go here for the comments haha.
One of the most shocking events of WWII? Not by a long shot... The royal couple were fervent Nazi's, and she was at least cooperating with them, and were only persecuted on vague suspicion of being traitors... I somehow feel more sympathy for the many anonymous people who were tortured and killed for their heritage, or the many brave members of the resistance.
Nonetheless, I learned something new today, so thank you for your excellent channel!
Any links to prove she was a nazi?
You are only half right. Her husband was a fervent nazi. She was not and was open about her disdain for the nazi party. Some historians believe this was the reason the suspicion from hitler and higher ups was so strong.
@@human_bot_ I believe limpy goebbels called her the "bitch" of the Italian Royal House. ie josef
@@Alv11269 the documentary states that she was at least sympathetic to fascism (rise of Mussolini), her husband was a high ranking nazi, and she didn't seem bothered too much by that. So she was profiting from her husbands nazi alignment for a long time.
@@bilgyno1 I know about her husband and her brother-in-law but please do share the link which elaborates on her.
Thank you
Why is the death of a princess more horrific than the deaths of millions of other people, including innocent children?
So Very Sad for Princess Mafalda. God Bless Her.🙏😢💖
I just learned something today i never knew the Nazi government had a royal in the camps.
They actually had a number of royals and nobles in camps: Princess Antonia of Luxembourg and her daughters, the princesses Irmingard of Bavaria, Hilda of Bavaria, Gabrielle, Duchess of Croÿ and Sophie, Duchess of Arenberg, brothers Prince Ernst of Hohenberg and Maximilian, Duke of Hohenberg, Albrecht, Duke of Bavaria, Prince Joachin Ernst of Anhalt, Franz, Duke of Bavaria, Grand Duchess Kira Kirillovna of Russia, Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia, Prince Max of Bavaria, Maximilian and Prince Xavier of Bourbon-Parma, etc.
They had others too. The primitive idea of royalty was still a cancer on Europe so some of Hitlers extermination eliminated people who came from families of parasite exterminators that were natural targets. Concentration camps were used for many others left out of history of the holocaust like from artists, gays, criminals, political and entertainment figures to priests and royalty. The ones with crowns are as close as anyone gkt to deserving their fates as most royals were okay with fascists gaining power in the 30s
Thank you for this memorial.
Sorry to hear about this too.
What a sad story....
If you continue this series with your excellent research,production
& narration,i estimate youhave 20 years of videos to make.Esp adding espionage captured agents into mix.(Been studying WW2 since1974)thanks for you your assistants work!!!!!!!!!!!
Very sad, I'm glad I got to learn about this today. 🙏 God rest her soul. History is important to know.
THANK YOU IS RIGHT .
It was a dangerous time to live and this poor lady was murdered.
She wasn't murdered! Did you actually watch the video, or do you just read the titles and then post lame comments?
@@clintfalk - So all the millions who starved in the camps, like Anne Frank, were not murdered ? One needs to look at matters in a broad sense.
She was not locked up for being a fierce full resistent hiding jews and attacking German soldiers. It was just mr. Hitler’s suspicion.
She's gorgeous! So sad that she had to endure such cruelty.
So sad that she herself caused such atrocities for so many innocent people before things flipped and she turned from perpetrator to victim.
Her father, the king, di not do anything ti oppose Mussolini. She never sympst hized with Nazi..please read history
My friend Christian looks like her lol
Would it of made any difference if she was ugly?
@@1442GlennLane At best she is an ambiguous character who flipped. Let's not forget how with her husband, she was a fierce supporter of Hitler and his regime for years.
Thank you for sharing this. i had wondered what had happened to her. Strangely, the only details that are easy to find are the lies told by the Nazis.
One of her daughters is still living as of January 2022. What a sad story.
Just because she had a title makes her murder no more terrible than all of the other victims who were murdered It did not matter if they had nothing or were very rich. We are all the same in death
No, but it shows two important points: no one was safe for the nazis, and even being a high ranking nazi was no guarantee for survival if you became a suspect for whatever reason.
Quiet peasent.
Rommel served Hitler very well, all Rommel did was show disapproval to the extermination camps. This Princess was accused of poisoning otherwise, she would not have ended up there.
I don't think that's how he meant this video. But as to your comments, should we forget her just because she's a princess then? She's equally to be remembered just as everyone who was murdered in that horrible war. Knowing her story, shows the vileness of the so-called people that were involved in running these concentration camps.
Yeah let's attack the victim, that makes everything better, not!
One of many many tragic stories from that time ,princess or not is not of relevance .
Thank you for telling this cruel and heartbreaking 💔 story. Lana USA 🇺🇸
