Mrs. Mayr is 105 years old and has only one last wish: a red-white-red passport. The sprightly South Tyrolean was once born an Austrian and wants to die an Austrian. A wish that the politicians refuse to grant her. Krone+ explains the grotesque story of Grandma's passport.

Hermine Aloisia Mayr recently celebrated her 105th birthday. However, her greatest wish for this remarkable birthday has still not been fulfilled. Because - as the "Krone" has already reported several times - she would like nothing more than to regain her Austrian citizenship.
