Queen Marie of Romania

*

Queen Marie of Rumania

29 October 1875 – 18 July 1938

Queen Marie was the first monarch to have declared her belief in Bahá'u'lláh.




"It is like a wide embrace gathering all those who have long searched for words of hope… Saddened by the continual strife amongst believers of many confessions and wearied of their intolerance towards each other, I discovered in the Bahá'í teaching the real spirit of Christ so often denied and misunderstood."
--Queen Marie
