Moritz Heinrich Rosenhauer (1803–1888)

Moritz Heinrich Rosenhauer (born May 10, 1803 in Grünhain , † December 28, 1888 in Striesen ) was a German Protestant pastor and politician.

The son of a Grünhain official guard attended the grammar school in Annaberg . After studying theology, he worked as a vicar in Waldkirchen from 1844 , then as a vicar in Fischbach from 1846 before he was appointed pastor in the Ore Mountains Rittersgrün , where he stood up for the people in need. In 1849/50 he was a member of the Second Chamber of the Saxon State Parliament as a representative of the 53rd electoral district . About this time he wrote: “ Two electoral districts placed their trust in me in the direct elections for the state parliament from 1849–1850. Defeated in the election campaigns in the Schwarzenberg electoral district, I was proposed to the Grünhainer and elected as a member of parliament without my intervention. Not belonging to any outside party, I tried to reconcile my position; Heavily depressed physically and mentally, I returned home with the knowledge that I had silently promoted and implemented some good things. "

In 1856 he was transferred to Buchholz as a pastor , where he worked until his retirement on November 1, 1880. He spent his old age in Striesen, where he died in 1888.
