thus be destroyed.
The Kaiserhof during the SO years
of it's existence has been the scene OF
some of the most brilliant functions
under the imperial regime. Here the
weddings Of the smart set were held.
Whenever a large festival took place
at court, to which potentates came
from foreign countries, some OF the
guests were lodged in the Kaiserhof.

them formal visits were Car Nicholas
of Russia and King George and Queen
