from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Benedikt Schönebeck (also Schönbeck ; born March 14, 1597 in Stendal ; † February 5, 1665 ibid) was an administrative lawyer, councilor, treasurer and mayor in Stendal.

ancestry

Benedikt Schönebeck was the second youngest son of Bartholomäus Schönebeck from the von Schönebeck family . He studied together with his brother Christoph Schönebeck and the Stendalers Julius Goldbeck, Andreas and Peter Bune, Bastian Wernicke, then in Halle , Wittenberg and Leipzig .

On February 12, 1621, he married Regina Wernicke, daughter of the Stendal mayor Bastian Wernicke and his wife Catharina Güssefeld. The marriage had eleven children. When the plague raged in Stendal in 1636 , he lost his wife and a daughter. Four other children had died earlier.

On August 8, 1641 he married Maria Karstedt (1625–1667) daughter of the Stendal guild master of the Kauf- und Seidenkramerinnung Lorenz W. Karstedt and his wife Maria Peters. This marriage resulted in four children, one of whom died early. Benedikt Schönebeck died on February 5, 1665 in Stendal.

Since 1626 he was active in the council of the city of Stendal, from 1653 several times as mayor, partly together with Germanus Luidtke , whose son Christian Luidtke (Lüdeke) married his daughter Maria Hedwig Schönebeck in 1668.

Professional activities

In addition to fields and meadows, he bequeathed his library to the library of the Schönebeck Foundation in St. Mary's Church in Stendal . The basis of the library is the private book collection of his late brother Christoph Schönebeck (1601–1662), who worked in Berlin as an electoral Brandenburg councilor and archivist. A few days before his death on September 26, 1662, he had received from his father Bartholomäus Schönebeck senior. (1546–1605, Mayor of Stendal) established a family foundation with the testamentary decree to transfer his books to the city council. The library was intended by its founder as a communal facility for his hometown. The first catalog from 1669 presumably records the holdings of the original foundation, which also includes a number of volumes from the possession of brother Benedikt Schönebeck.
