Life

Former Theisaer Rittergut (2018)

Schulze, whose origins are unknown, embarked on an administrative career and became a bailiff in Liebenwerda . When the office was divided into the two areas of Justice and Rent Office at the end of the 18th century, Schulze took over the Liebenwerda Justice Office. With the appointment of the previous Elector of Saxony as king, Schulze became the royal Saxon judicial officer in Liebenwerda. As such, he experienced the time of the Wars of Liberation in 1813 and the Congress of Vienna in 1815 , as a result of which the Liebenwerda office fell to the Kingdom of Prussia. This made Schulze a Prussian civil servant.

In 1821 he was appointed as a lawyer to the Prussian judicial commissioner in the regional court district of Torgau .

In 1785 he had bought the indebted manor in Theisa from the two children of the deceased district chief Johann Burckhardt von Wichmannshausen , which he expanded into the residence of his family. He is credited with building the new school in Theisa with a school bell. Until 1806 he also owned the Prestewitz manor .

Christian August Schulze died in Theisa on March 7, 1826 as the Prussian judicial commissioner, leaving behind the unmarried daughter Johanna Elisabeth Schulze and the two sons Christian Heinrich and Friedrich August Schulze. After some hesitation as to whether the inheritance of the indebted father would be taken on at all, they finally decided to do so and also took over his indebted manor in Theisa. The eldest son took over the estate alone in 1829 and sold it to Johann Gottfried Lehmann in 1840.
