Philipp, Prince of Hohenlohe-Langenburg (Philipp Gottfried Alexander; born 20 January 1970), is the head of the House of Hohenlohe-Langenburg, since the death of his father in 2004.
His decision to set up 24 large wind turbines in his forest is controversial. He sought public support from (then) Charles, Prince of Wales, the current King Charles III, and from former vice chancellor and foreign minister Joschka Fischer of the Green Party, who both attended a conference at Langenburg Castle in 2013.[2] Together with Fischer he founded the Langenburg Forum for Sustainability[3] which cooperates with Charles' International Sustainability Unit[4]
Langenburg castle is partially open to the public, including the state rooms and an oldtimer museum.[5]
Marriage and issue
He married Saskia Binder (b. 15 January 1973 in Munich), daughter of former Deutsche Bank Munich director Hans Peter Binder, on 6 September 2003 in a civil ceremony at Langenburg. They married in a religious ceremony on 13 September 2003 in Diessen am Ammersee. The couple have two sons and a daughter.[6]
