Prince Georg Friedrich of Prussia, (German: Georg Friedrich Ferdinand Prinz von Preußen) (born June 10 1976) is the current head of the royal house of Prussia and the imperial house of Germany. He succeeded his grandfather, Prince Louis Ferdinand of Prussia to these positions in 1994. He has chosen to style himself His Royal Highness The Prince of Prussia. He is alternatively styled His Imperial and Royal Highness The Prince of Prussia.
Georg Friedrich is only son of the late Prince Louis Ferdinand II of Prussia and Countess Donata of Castell-Rüdenhausen (born a member of a mediatized princely family, she is now Duchess Donata of Oldenburg by a second marriage). He attended grammar schools in Bremen and Oldenburg and completed his education at Glenalmond College near Perth, Scotland, where he passed his A-levels.
As a result of the 1442 Treaty of Wittstock between the House of Mecklenburg and the House of Hohenzollern, Georg Friedrich is considered by some people to be the heir of the grand-ducal thrones of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and Mecklenburg-Strelitz. As yet there is no indication that he has publicly acknowledged or claimed any Mecklenburg rights or titles. Georg Friedrich is also the heir of the Prussian claimants of the title of Prince of Orange. As a descendant of the United Kingdom's Queen Victoria, Georg Friedrich is 150th in the line of succession to the British throne. He is also related to all of the current monarchs in Europe.
