biography
His father was Ignatz Brenner von Felsach , also a diplomat and orientalist. As a diplomat, Adolph von Brenner-Felsach was in Munich , as well as in Greece , where his son Joachim von Brenner-Felsach was born in Athens in 1859 or later in Denmark, where he also served with the family. He was married to Countess Luise Seilern and Aspang. He was also involved as a diplomat in the peace negotiations in the Peace of Prague with Germany. In the two years 1867 and 1868 he was a representative of the large estates in the Lower Austrian state parliament .
He was the commander of the Imperial Austrian Leopold Order and Knight of the Royal Prussian Rothen Adler Order, first class . In 1879 he became a member of the Herrenhaus , the upper house of the Austrian Imperial Council .
There are numerous entries by artists of his time, such as Franz Grillparzer , Friedrich Halm , Theodor von Karajan and others, in his register from the period from 1852 to 1873, which his sister Josefine Khevenhüller gave to him and which is now kept in the National Library .
Its local importance lies in its homeland in the two former independent communities of Gainfarn and Großau, where he inherited the Merkenstein and Gainfarn estates from Joachim Eduard Graf Münch-Bellinghausen in 1866. He earned social merit for both places. He built the monastery in Gainfarn in 1874 with a child preservation facility , as the kindergarten was called at the time.
