Individual evidence

  1. a b On name and citizenship: Since Max von Thun's parents Friedrich (see note there) and Gabriele are Austrian citizens, his son Max (imilian) is also Austrian and is therefore called like the father Thun-Hohenstein without “Graf” and without “von " in the name of.
  2. In the ZDF broadcast Volle Kanne on March 28, 2013, Max von Thun stated that he had both a German and an Austrian passport. This is countered by the fact that both parents are Austrian and Austrian law does not provide for dual citizenship. An exceptional award of the “Austrian passport” on account of special services for the Republic of Austria (e.g. for artistic reasons) is also not documented.
