Grand Duchy of Luxemburg
House of Orange-Nassau
Traditionally, the members of this family bear the titles Prince or
Princess of Luxemburg, Bourbon-Parma and Nassau (Royal Highness). The Arrêté Grand-Ducal of 21 Septembre 1995
etablished that the title of "Prince orPrincesse de Luxembourg" is reserved for the children of the sovereign and
the heir to the throne. It also stated that the descendants in male lineage of the sovereign should be styled as "Prince/Princesse
de Nassau" with qualification of "Altesse Royale" and that the descendants of non-approved mariages should
be styled as "Comte or Comtesse de Nassau". On 27 November 2004 Grand-duc Henri issued another Arrêté
Grand-Ducal upgrading the issue of Prince Jean to "Prince/Princesse de Nassau" with the qualification of "Altesse
Royale" and upgrading the wife and issue of Prince Robert to "Prince/Princesse de Nassau" with qualification
of "Altesse Royale". In June 2009 another Arrêté Grand-Ducal was issued upgrading the issue of Prince
Louis to "Prince/Princesse de Nassau" with the qualification of "Altesse Royale" and upgrading his wife
Tessy "Altesse Royale Princesse de Luxembourg".
