Life

Before his appointment as district administrator of Schwarzenberg, he worked as an official in Oschatz . Little is known about his work as district administrator in Schwarzenberg. The order of Elector Johann Georg III is to him. of March 3, 1687, in which, in order to protect the Elector's forests, it was determined that the sheet metal and rod hammer mills in the Schwarzenberg and Crottendorf offices may only produce 24 weeks a year. He decided on October 14, 1699 in a legal dispute in which it was about a loan and its repayment. A report on this process calls him “consultissimus dominus praefectus schwarzenbergensis” (experienced Mr. Prefect von Schwarzenberg). In the dissertation published in 1696 by the first pastor of Schönheide in the Ore Mountains , Johann Christoph Vogel, it is highlighted as "Circuli per Ditionem Montanam Praefecto splendissimo ... in Schwartzenberg & Crotendorf" (the most brilliant head of the Schwarzenberg and Crottendorf districts). Christian Kreß was a sponsor of this doctoral thesis, which the author expressly mentions. In Johann Christoph Vogel's second doctoral thesis from 1709, entitled "De iure et privilegio collectarum in concursibus creditorum in foro inprimis electorali saxonico" , Christian Kreß is referred to as the praefectus of the Circulo Aeremontano Schwarzenbergae et Crotendorfio and mentioned as a sponsor.

Christian Kreß took part in the laying of the foundation stone of the new church in Stützengrün on January 26, 1697 . The Festschrift printed on the occasion was dedicated to him. Ludwig-Günther Martini dedicated the printed version of his lecture to Christian Kreß in 1680 to the council and citizenship of the city of Annaberg: “Religious Obrigkrit and Subjects Linked Duty and Obligation”.

Christian Kreß's first marriage to Susanne Dorothea was born. Weißenberg (1649–1679) and married in second marriage to Juliana, the only daughter of Hammerherrn Heinrich Siegel at Schönheiderhammer . Around 1703 Kreß is said to have owned this ironworks. He is mentioned as the owner in reports of its destruction by fire. Christian Meltzer writes about this in his Historia Schneebergensis Renovata from 1716:

“Anno 1703… On August 17th the Hammerwerck Schönheide burned down / because the shame / according to the owner at the time / Christian Kreßen / Creyß-Amtmann zu Schwartzenberg concerned / as expected / not minor. "
