Hans Heinrich XV von Hochberg (Polish: Jan Henryk XV; 23 April 1861 – 31 January 1938) was Prince of Pless (Pszczyna), Count von Hochberg and Baron of Fürstenstein (Książ). He was the husband (1891–1923) of Mary Theresa Olivia Hochberg von Pless, also known as Princess Daisy.[2]
A member of one of the wealthiest European noble families, he was the owner of large estates and coal mines in Silesia (Poland) which brought him enormous fortune and his extravagant lifestyle coupled with disastrous events and political and family scandals were tasty morsels for the international press.[3]
The historical drama Magnat (1987) was based on the life of Hans Heinrich between both World Wars. The film eventually became one of the most celebrated in Polish cinematic history.[4][5]
