  Franz, Duke of Bavaria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Franz Bonaventura Adalbert Maria Herzog von Bayern (born July 14, 1933), styled as His Royal Highness The Duke of Bavaria, is head of the Wittelsbach family, the former ruling family of the Kingdom of Bavaria.
Franz is the heir-general of the Royal House of Stuart and thus is regarded by Jacobites as the rightful King of England and Scotland.
Franz has never married and on his death his position as head of the House of Wittelsbach will pass to his brother Max, Herzog in Bayern, (that is Duke "in", not "of", Bavaria).

Franz Bonaventura Adalbert Maria Herzog von Bayern (born July 14 1933), styled as the Duke of Bavaria, is head of the Wittelsbach family, the former ruling family of the Kingdom of Bavaria.
The Wittelsbachs continue to be held in high esteem in Bavaria, and are treated in many respects as though they were still a royal dynasty, although none of their titles are recognised under German law.
Franz is regarded by Jacobites as the heir to the Royal House of Stuart and thus the rightful King of England and Scotland.

Elector Charles Albert of Bavaria was chosen (1742) Holy Roman emperor as Charles VII ; with the death (1777) of his son, Maximilian III, the Bavarian branch of the Wittelsbachs died out, and the Palatinate-Sulzbach line acceded in Bavaria in the person of Elector Charles Theodore, who died in 1799 without issue.
He was succeeded by the duke palatine of Zweibrücken, senior member of the Palatinate branch, who thus united all Wittelsbach lands under his sole rule and who in 1806 became king of Bavaria as Maximilian I.
Empress Elizabeth of Austria, wife of Francis Joseph, and Queen Elizabeth of the Belgians, consort of Albert I, issued from a collateral line of the dynasty, and the Wittelsbachs have intermarried for centuries with all the royal families of Europe.

ADALBERT [Adalbert] 1043-72, German churchman, archbishop of Hamburg-Bremen, a diocese that included Scandinavia.
He was a favorite of Holy Roman Emperor Henry III, who appointed Adalbert to the archbishopric in order to break the power of the dukes of N Europe.
He was a guardian of Henry's son and successor, Henry IV, but his relentless ambition to strengthen the church and the monarchy at the expense of the nobles (chiefly by annexing their lands) defeated itself.

Duke Franz, along with many companies, private individuals, and Hans Zehetmair, the Bavarian Minister for Art and Science, assumed the responsibility of creating the Pinakothek, which opened to the public in September of 2002.
Duke Franz’ commitment to the creation of this institution place him in the tradition of his ancestor King Ludwig I of Bavaria, who 150 years ago established the Neue Pinakothek, the first international museum of contemporary art in Munich.
Throughout his life, Duke Franz placed great importance on personally meeting the artists of his time, often collecting their work when they were not yet established in their careers and were known only to a very small circle in Germany.
