Family

He was a child of Augustus, Grand Duke of Oldenburg and his wife, Princess Cecilia of Sweden daughter of King Gustav IV Adolf of Sweden.[1][2][3] He was the youngest of all sons but apparently the only one who lived. His elder half-sister was Amalia of Oldenburg, Queen Consort of Greece.

Anton was a charming prince and tried his best to please his worried father. His father was determined to keep his living son alive and make his wife Cecilia proud. Anton was patient but unlike his other half-sister and half-brothers he wanted to have a good education. He went to public academies which made his father concerned. When his father died Anton felt lonely but continued to take public academies.
