Live and act

His parents were the Catholic Ansbach building director and court chamber councilor Gabriel de Gabrieli and his 25-year-old wife Giovanna Marta Tini. Adam Emanuel was the fifth child; the mother died of puerperal fever a few days after the birth and was buried in Herrieden . Adam Emanuel was baptized on July 1, 1715. Soon afterwards, the father and the children moved to the prince-bishop's residence town of Eichstätt , where he worked as court building director and court chamber councilor until his death in 1747 and entered into a second marriage with Magdalena Pfaller. Here Adam Emanuel attended the Jesuit grammar school from 1725 (from 1730 in Dillingen?) And matriculated at the University of Ingolstadt in 1732 , where he studied theology studied and was awarded a doctorate in theology.

In 1735 he joined the Society of Jesus in Ingolstadt and was ordained a priest on May 8, 1745 by Auxiliary Bishop Johann Gottfried Groß von Trockau in the Johanneskapelle of Eichstätter Cathedral. After his ordination, he worked in the Jesuit branches of Ebersberg , Feldkirch , Solothurn , Rottweil , Rottenburg am Neckar , Landsberg and Augsburg . After the abolition of the Jesuit order in 1773 he came to Eichstätt as an ex-Jesuit and worked as a professor at the former Jesuit grammar school, the " Collegium Willibaldinum ", until 1780. He was apostolic protonotary and from 1781 pastor at the Eichstätter Heilig-Geist-Spital. He died at the age of 69 and was buried in Eichstätts' east cemetery, where his tomb has been preserved.

The Diocesan Museum Eichstätt owns an oil painting, painted by an unknown hand in 1716 and thus after the death of the mother, a double portrait of the mother with the one-year-old child Adam Emanuel.
