About Me

Carmen Thyssen inherited her fortune from her husband, Baron Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza, when he died in 2002. She owns an art collection being exhibited at the Thyssen Museum in Madrid that is valued by the Spanish government at more than $1.4 billion. Carmen Thyssen, a former Miss Spain, married Hans Thyssen-Bornemisza, heir to a German industrial fortune, in 1985; she was his fifth wife. Hans and his son Georg, now both deceased, settled a 3-year court battle over control of the family's Monaco-based TBG Group months before the elder Thyssen died in 2002. The Thyssen Museum exhibits the government-owned Thyssen Bornemisza collection as well as the private collection of Carmen Thyssen.
