Diedrich von Bartels

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Diedrich von Bartels (* 1701 in Lübeck ; † August 21, 1763 ) was a merchant and councilor of the Hanseatic city of Lübeck.

Life

origin

Diedrich von Bartels was the son of the Lübeck merchant of the same name and grandson of councilor Diedrich (von) Bartels (1633–1689), who was ennobled by the emperor .

Buyer and councilor

After a commercial apprenticeship started with a relative in 1714, Bartels went to Königsberg in 1719. There he was committed to military service in Prussia. He later took over his father's Lübeck trading business. Bartels was elected to the Lübeck Council in 1739 . On the same day, under pressure from the city's citizens, councilors Marcus Tidemann , Johann David Widderich and Paul Vermehren were elected because the council had neglected for a long time the self-supplementation to the number of 20 council members prescribed since the citizen recession of 1669. As councilor from 1743 to 1749 he was lord of the stables, 1750 court lord and 1754 treasurer. In 1761 he resigned his council offices for health reasons. Nevertheless, he remained a councilor and continued to take part in the general council meetings. A dispute arose with regard to his remuneration as councilor in this very rare status for Lübeck, because the council reduced this at the same time.

Estates

Manor house Niendorf

In 1755 Bartels acquired the Schönfeld estate from Hans Dietrich von Berkentin , which was to belong to his heirs until 1771, and in 1761 he also bought the Niendorf estate in today's Moisling district and the associated village of Reecke from the Danish court marshal Adam Gottlob von Moltke . In 1761–1763 he built the classicist mansion in Niendorf, which is still standing today, through Lübeck's city architect Johann Adam Soherr .

family

In 1727 he married a daughter of the businessman Bernhard Heinrich Stolterfoht . His son took over the Niendorf estate with Reecke by inheritance and in 1771 added the central projection to the manor house. In addition to the year, the von Bartels family coat of arms is still on it .

The Bartelsholz , a forest of around 110 hectares southwest of Niendorf, is a reminder of the Lübeck councilor and his family.
