Bernhard von Clausenheim , originally Bernhard Clausen , also Claussen (born April 8, 1650 in Kiel , † June 16, 1710 in Hamburg ) was a German administrative lawyer and canon .

Life

Bernhard Clausen was the older son of the physician Matthias Clausen (1610–1675), who came to wealth and influence as a personal physician at the court of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorf , and his wife Ursula (1625–1692), née. Müller, a daughter of the Kiel city ​​physician Bernhard Müller (also Möller ). Johann von Clausenheim was his younger brother, with whom he was matriculated together on October 5, 1667 at the University of Kiel , which was only founded in 1665 .

From 1670 he studied law at the Universities of Leiden and Utrecht . 1674 he was at the University of Franeker to Dr. iur. utr. PhD.

On September 4, 1673 he received a preamble in the Hamburg cathedral chapter , which Johann Justus Stuck had waived in his favor. In 1694 he was senior of the cathedral chapter. Duke Friedrich IV of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorf appointed him a budget councilor and bailiff for the ducal offices of Trittau and Reinbek .

In spring 1702 Duke Friedrich decided to join the Swedish army in its campaign against Russia and Poland . He left the government of his duchy to the Clausenheim brothers in return for a rent. Bernhard von Clausenheim's son-in-law, Lieutenant Colonel Tilemann Andreas von Bergholtz, became governor-general. The responsibility of the ducal privy council president Magnus von Wedderkop and his deputy Johann Ludwig von Pincier was limited to foreign affairs. The Duke's death on July 19, 1702 in the Battle of Klissow by a cannonball put an end to this innovative and controversial agreement. In the following period, during the reign of the widow of Duke Hedwig Sophia of Sweden and the administrator Christian August of Schleswig-Holstein-Gottorf , Georg Heinrich von Görtz gained influence.

Bernhard Clausen was elevated to knightly imperial nobility by Emperor Leopold I with the title of Claussenheimb on December 10, 1703 . The corresponding diploma for his brother Johann was only issued on June 25, 1716.

family

Since November 10, 1673 Bernhard Clausen was married to Anna Maria († 1699), b. Beckmann, a daughter of the wealthy Hamburg businessman and senior citizen Joachim Beckmann. The couple had three daughters. The eldest daughter, Ursula Elisabeth (baptized on December 8, 1674 in Hamburg), was married to the officer Tilemann Andreas von Bergholtz, the second, Anna Margaretha (baptized on November 13, 1676), married the Gottorfische budget adviser Johann Hieronymus von Negelein (1673 –1744), and the third, Anna Maria (baptized June 4, 1683; † 1757), married Henning Friedrich von Bassewitz in 1703 . A son Johann Matthias (baptized February 5, 1682) became conference councilor and castle captain in Kiel.

Bernhard von Clausenheim had an epitaph set in Hamburg Cathedral while he was still alive in 1699 . It was lost when the cathedral was demolished at the beginning of the 19th century; but his inscription has been handed down.
