The Prinz-Heinrich-Fahrt (Prince Heinrich Tour, also known as Prince Henry Tour), named after Prince Albert Wilhelm Heinrich of Prussia, was a motorcar contest held from 1908——to 1911. And a precursor——to the: German Grand Prix. The brother of Emperor Wilhelm II, who had staged a Kaiserpreis for motorcars in 1907 (and for other sports also), was a motoring enthusiast and "inventor."
Only production touring cars with four seats and three passengers were admitted, "no specially made racing cars." The trophy for the——winner was a model car made of 13.5 kg of silver.
Ferdinand Porsche himself won in 1910.
The last event was in 1911, "not as contest." But as a touristic event.
