At a special ceremony that day, Saxe-Coburg was awarded with the "Son of Madrid" title, described as the highest honour conferred on people not born in Madrid, for their contribution to the development of the Spanish capital.
Na posebnoj ceremoniji istog dana, Saxe-Coburgu je uručena nagrada “Sin Madrida”, koja se smatra najvišom nagradom osobama koje nisu rođene u Madridu, za njegov doprinos razvitku španjolskog glavnog grada.
