Count Riprand was a great-grandson of Ludwig III the last king of Bavaria.   Archduchess Maria Beatrice of the daughter of the late HI & RH Archduke Robert of Austria, the third child of Emperor Karl I of Austria.  

Moos is the seat of the family brewery, Arcobräu, which has been inherited by Maximiliana's older sister, Countess Anna Theresa.  

The religious service will occur on May 20 at the Pfarrkirche St. Martin im Innkreis, Austria.
