from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christian Wilhelm Karl von Stutterheim (* 14. October 1723 in Ogrosen ; † 22. May 1783 in Lübbenau ) was Country General Counsel of the Lower Lausitz and Polish - Electoral Saxon Chamberlain .

Life

origin

Christian Wilhelm Karl was a member of the von Stutterheim family, originally from Thuringia . His parents were the Margrave-Brandenburg-Kulmbach Real Secret Council and Minister Christian Hieronymus von Stutterheim (1690–1753) and Johanna Maria von Sehligencron.

Career

Stutterheim completed a degree, presumably jurisprudence , at the University of Gießen before he entered the Baden-Durlach service as a government assessor in 1747 . After a few years he returned home and in 1751 took over a position as regional court assessor for Niederlausitz. As a representative of the estates, Stutterheim held the office of State Syndic of Lusatia from 1752 to 1760 and was state elder of the Calau district from 1759 to 1768 . From 1768 until his death, Stutterheim headed the administrative and judicial authorities of the Margraviate of Niederlausitz as the head of the regional government.

He was Polish Chamberlain and Knight of the Prussian Order of the Red Eagle . From 1751/1752 Stutterheim was also the heir to Ogrosen, Bolschwitz and Schöllnitz (until 1767).

Due to the side effects and consequences of the Seven Years' War , Stutterheim left behind heavily indebted goods when he died. He was buried in his family's specially built hereditary funeral, a vaulted crypt next to the Ogrosener church. A window grille there bears his initials . A zinc plaque that was added later, naming his life, still reminds of him today.

family

Stutterheim married Johanna Sophie Margarethe von Muschwitz (1731–1801), daughter of the Upper Government Council and consistorial director of Niederlausitz Curt Ehrenreich von Muschwitz, in Laasow in 1748 . The marriage resulted in four children, of which only the later electoral councilor Otto Christian Ehrenreich von Stutterheim (1751–1799) reached the age of majority and entered the state of marriage.
