in one Interview with the World Georg Friedrich Prince of Prussia announced that the Hohenzollerns would waive around 4,000 expropriated art and collection objects for which they had submitted applications for return under the 1994 Compensation and Compensation Act. This is a remarkable process. For decades, the House of Hohenzollern conducted tough negotiations about these objects, which are mainly located at the Prussian Palaces and Gardens Foundation in Potsdam, the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation and the German Historical Museum in Berlin. The negotiating partners were and are the sponsors of these institutions, the state of Brandenburg, the federal government and the state of Berlin. Parallel to these out-of-court negotiations, complaints by the Hohenzollerns are pending before the administrative court in Potsdam. The notice of waiver is only meaningful if it includes the withdrawal of those claims.
