Habsburgs Privileges

A Documentary by Stefan Wolner

A, 2022 | 45 Min

Sisi – hardly any other monarch has fascinated contemporaries as well as posterity in the same way. Many myths are woven around her complex personality. To this day, historic research endeavours to uncover the ‘true’ Elisabeth. Relatively little is known about Sisi’s childhood. In general, her image is dominated by Ernst Marischka’s Sisi trilogy: light-hearted freedom at Possenhofen on Lake Starnberg, shaped by a doting father, who imbued Sisi and her siblings with a love for nature, whilst the rather strict mother is mostly interested in marrying her children off most advantageously.
