Agnelli Family

Overview

The Agnelli family is an Italian industrial dynasty with connections to Ferrari, Fondazione Agnelli, and CERN. Like almost all involved parties, they have connections to CERN.

Fürstenberg Connection

The Agnelli family is directly connected to European royalty through Clara Agnelli (1920-2016), who was the elder sister of Gianni Agnelli (FIAT chairman) and married to Prince Tassilo zu Fürstenberg of the House of Fürstenberg.

Key Genealogical Link

• Clara Agnelli married Prince Tassilo zu Fürstenberg
• Their son: Prince Egon von Fürstenberg (1946-2004)
• His son: Prince Alexander von Fürstenberg (b. 1970)

This means Prince Alexander von Fürstenberg is the great-nephew of Gianni Agnelli and carries both Italian industrial dynasty and German aristocratic heritage.
