Life

Depiction of " Mourning Germania " in the journal Die Gartenlaube (1869)

He came from the Franconian noble family of the Counts of Pappenheim and was the seventh of nine children of Albert Graf zu Pappenheim (1777–1860), Lord of Pappenheim , and Maria Antoinetta Freiin Taenzl von Tratzberg (1793–1861). As a child he was raised as a royal noble boy .

In 1846 he joined the Historic Association in Middle Franconia as a new member .

At least as early 1864 to May 1869 Pappenheim was a Royal Government District Officer (district head) of Bad Toelz . In May 1869 he was transferred as a bath commissioner to the Bad Kissingen state baths , which he remained for six years until 1875 - as a councilor of the Chamber of the Interior in the Lower Franconian government in Würzburg . His successor as bath commissioner was Luitpold du Jarrys Freiherr von La Roche .

In Bad Kissingen, Pappenheim was Joseph von Parseval's successor in office and was able to bring some projects started by his predecessor to a conclusion. On June 1, 1869, he opened the first construction phase of the new "Actienbad" (later called Luitpoldbad ) with initially only 66 baths. On September 8, 1869, he unveiled the Kissinger from the bathroom sculptor Michael Arnold in Parseval job created monument of mourners Germania with the words: "Germania fword was henceforth only the symbol of their strength and peace palm valley to all German brothers!" His successor as Kissinger bath commissioner became Luitpold du Jarrys Freiherr von La Roche in 1875 .

After retiring from government service in 1875, Pappenheim acquired the Falkenberg estate with a castle located a few kilometers west of Grafing near Munich , today a district of Moosach in the Ebersberg district. Because of a lack of income from the local agriculture, Pappenheim then moved to the royal seat of Munich. His funeral took place at his request in the cemetery around St. Gallus Church in Pappenheim.

On September 8, 1857, he had married Countess Hermine von Paumgarten (born August 28, 1836 in Leopoldskron near Salzburg , † October 4, 1914 in Munich) at Schloss Pappenheim , the daughter of Count Hermann von Paumgarten (1806–1846), royal Bavarian Chamberlain and multiple squire , and Mary Erskine (1806–1874) from the family of Barons Erskine. The couple had two sons and a daughter.
