Albert von Hügel (born September 30, 1803 , † December 31, 1865 ) was a German officer, Württemberg chamberlain and manor owner .

Life

Hügel was the oldest child of the later Württemberg general and war minister Ernst Eugen Freiherr von Hügel (1774–1849); his younger brother Karl Eugen von Hügel (1805-1870) was Württemberg Foreign Minister from 1855 to 1864. Albert von Hügel had made it up to the rank of cavalry master in the Württemberg army when he was married in 1831 as a co-owner of the former imperial knighthood of Eschenau ( Oberamt Weinsberg ) and consequently entered in the knightly register of the kingdom.

Hill built in 1851 east Eschenau in Waldeinsamkeit the grand Waldhof . In the run-up to the construction of the " Kocherbahn ", the railway line from Heilbronn to Hall , it is said, with its good connections to Stuttgart, that the railway line led through Eschenau and thus the Weinsberg valley instead of Neckarsulm and the northern Kocher valley .

In 1861 Albert von Hügel was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of the Württemberg Crown . At that time he was Colonel and Commander of the 7th Infantry Regiment.

family

Albert von Hügel was a Protestant. In 1831 he married Marie Louise Elisabethe Freiin von Uexküll-Gyllenband (1811–1862), the owner of the Eschenau manor, who divorced him again in 1843 and married the Weinsberg doctor and poet Theobald Kerner a year later .

The marriage had three children:

  • Alexander Ernst August (* 1832)
  • Anna Louise Char. Mathilde (* 1833)
  • Ernst Ludwig Paul Carl (1835-1897)

The younger son married Amalie Josephine Henriette Agnes Susanne in 1863, daughter of Duke Alexander Paul Ludwig von Württemberg and Countess Claudine von Rhédey von Kis-Rédé Countess zu Hohenstein , and was accepted into the hereditary count of the Kingdom of Württemberg in 1879 .
