Some interesting information about Bavaria, Germany, and the Finster family:

  • Empress Elisabeth of Austria (1837 – 1898), also known as “Sisi”, was born into the royal Bavarian house of Wittelsbach and was originally known as the Duchess of Bavaria. It was only when she married Emperor Franz Joseph I that she left her beloved homeland to become Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary.
  • They declared allegiances to many nobles and princes of early history, lending their influence in struggles for power and status within the region.
  • Germans consider it bad luck to celebrate birthdays early. They believe in a philosophy that roughly translates into “don’t count your chickens before they hatch.” An early congratulation for a birthday reminds the recipient that he or she could die before the actual date occurs.
  • The earliest known inhabitants in the area of present-day Bavaria were the Celts.
  • The last, and one of the most important, of the dukes of Bavaria was Henry the Lion of the house of Welf, founder of Munich, and de facto the second most powerful man in the empire as the ruler of two duchies.
