Rose of Gorze A Wounded Officer Gift to Emperor William
In August 1870 a German officer wounded at Mars-la-Tour lay hidden with a French family near Garza Lorraine. The daughter placed a red rose at his bedside and sent it to Gorze for the king. King William greeted the rose, learned the bearer Captain von Zedwitz, and the tale of the mars-la-tour battle spread as roses poured in. Later Zedwitz met the Emperor and Crown Prince who recalled the rose and the officer’s loyalty.
