Duchess Woizlawa Feodora of Mecklenburg (1918-2019) as a small child.
She was born just after the abdication of her first cousin Frederick Francis IV of the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, and the establishment of the Weimar Republic.
Her parents were Duke Adolf Friedrich of Mecklenburg and Princess Viktoria Feodora Reuss of Schleiz.
Princess Viktoria Feodora died a day after Woizlawa's birth. She was named for Woizlawa, the daughter of Wartislaw I (d. 1135), Duke of Pomerania, and the wife of Pribislav (d. 1178), an Oborite prince and the first duke of Mecklenburg. Her name was an acknowledgement that the House of Mecklenburg, although Germanized over the centuries, was originally of Slavic origins.
At her death at the age of 100, she was the oldest living royal and the oldest living resident of Gorwihl.
