Life

The inscription on the portal of the rectory in Bürg names Casimir von Gemmingen as the builder of the house in 1767

Casimir came from the Bürg-Presteneck branch of the Barons of Gemmingen and was a son of Johann Bernhard von Gemmingen (1656–1723) and Maria Agatha von Bettendorff (1663–1733). After the death of his father, he and his brother Reinhard (1699–1726) and his uncle Eberhard (1674–1741) shared the previously jointly administered property in Bürg and Presteneck in 1724 , with the brothers Bürg. His brother Reinhard died of typhus in 1726 while serving in the imperial war in Belgradeand bequeathed all of his property to Casimir. He was able to increase his property in Bürg through an exchange of goods by exchanging his noble Neuhof for the Kreuter'sche Gut in Bürg in 1761, which was previously owned by Georg David Jäger . In 1767 he had the rectory built in Bürg , which an inscription on the portal says to this day.

He was buried at the side of his wife in the church of Burg.
