"Karl Heinrich" by Wilhelm Meyer-Förster is a novel written in 1898. A young prince from Saxony arrives at Heidelberg University, where his sheltered royal life collides with the freedoms of student existence. He falls deeply in love with Käthie, the daughter of an innkeeper, experiencing genuine connection beyond palace walls. But when duty calls him home to assume the throne, he must choose between personal happiness and royal obligation. This romantic tale
became the basis for Meyer-Förster's immensely successful 1901 play "Old Heidelberg," inspiring numerous film adaptations and operettas. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
