In May 1945, Hugo Køhler said on his deathbed that he was in fact the missing Archduke Johan Orth, and asked his family to claim their rightful inheritance. A few years ago, some of Køhler's descendants began their search for the truth, Hugo Køhler was actually Johan Orth?
According to Jan Frode Johansen, they are so confident in their case that if the Austrian court does not allow them to open the grave, they will appeal to the Austrian Republic and possibly the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.
The Digital Archive's user forum has no less than 4200 posts, divided into 9 discussion threads about Hugo Køhler. According to the newspaper Fædrelandsvennen, which reports on this case, a number of Norwegian genealogists reject the story of Køhler as pure nonsense.
