Simeon Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, son of the Bulgarian Tsar Boris III, and his sister Maria-Louisa are the owners of the park and the "Vrana" palace in Sofia and all claims of the state against them have been definitively rejected. This happened after the Supreme Court of Cassation did not allow an appeal against the decision of the Sofia Court of Appeal, by which the two were recognized as the owners of the property last summer, the website lex.bg reports.

"With this decision, the dispute about Vrana is put to an end and legal justice is restored. After the state once took the palace from the royal family precisely as the king's property, years later it cannot claim that it was its own at the time of nationalization," lawyer Valya Gigova commented.
