<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 2400715, member: 39&quot;]Interesting coat of arms by the way. One of his ancestors fought in the Turkish Wars near Raab (Győr, HU) in the 16th century, defending Western/central Europe during the Ottoman attacks. After that the Schwarzenbergs were allowed to have this armes parlantes element: a raven (Rabe, allusion to the city name) doing something not terribly nice with a Turk&#039;s head. Side note: Until a few years ago the Czech foreign minister was a Schwarzenberg, and he used a (family) CoA with that same &quot;picky&quot; bird. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
