Alexander studied forestry and was involved in the work of the family's property at Callenberg. His father, Prince Andreas, then suggested that Alexander should look after Greinburg Castle, at Grein, Austria, and its surroundings. For some years now, the prince has been committed to overseeing the administration of this property and its resources.
Eurohistory wishes Prince Alexander a very Happy Birthday. Alles Gute zum Geburtstag!
