Ernst von Hertzberg

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ernst Kaspar Wilhelm von Hertzberg , also von Hertzberg – Lottin , (born July 5, 1852 in Lottin , Neustettin district ; † December 16, 1920 ibid) was a Prussian landscape director and politician .

Life

He came from the old Pomeranian aristocratic family Hertzberg , first mentioned in 1378, was the son of the jurist and high court auscultator Theodor von Hertzberg (1815–1874) and Marie Austria (* 1825) and had four siblings.

Hertzberg was landlord of Lottin , Hohbüch and Babylon (all in the Neustettin district ) and royal Prussian cavalry master . He was also landscape councilor of the landscape department of the Pomeranian landscape in Treptow an der Rega and landscape director. He was an honorary knight of the Order of St. John .

In 1894 Hertzberg became a member of the Prussian mansion for life on presentation of the old and fortified properties in the Duchy of Kassuben . He was also a member of the Provincial Parliament of Pomerania and a longstanding committee member of the Prussian Central Cooperative Fund . Hertzberg was a friend and confidante of Heinrich Claß , through which he came into contact with the Pan-German Association . His son Gertzlaff later also became active there. In 1899, von Hertzfeld invented Jewish “secret writings” that were available to the government and that were supposed to describe a blood rite, among other things. At the beginning of 1916 Ernst von Hertzberg was one of the signatories of the imperial submission initiated by Otto zu Salm-Horstmar . Hertzberg clearly positioned himself later against the Kaiser. From 1919 he was a member of the "Advisory Board" of the German Völkischer Schutz- und Trutzbund . He used his position in the Pomeranian Builders' Association to rail against the "shameless and vile manner" of the organized workers and to ban social democratic workers from the construction sites through a membership obligation. Shortly before his death he was able, among other things, to enforce the establishment of an Aryan paragraph in the German Nobility Association .

Hertzberg married Eva von Busse on June 12, 1875 in Neustettin (born August 13, 1856 in Neustettin; † March 8, 1933 at Gut Lottin), the daughter of the Neustettiner district administrator Hermann von Busse and Emma von Bonin from the Wulfflatzke family. The marriage resulted in six sons, including Rüdiger von Hertzberg , as well as six daughters in the years 1877–1899 .
