Life
origin
As a descendant of the noble family of Loë belonging to the Westphalian nobility , Eugen was born as the son of the manor owner and district administrator Baron Clemens von Loë and Therese-born Freiin von Weichs zur Wenne . His father had bought the Wissem house in Troisdorf in 1833 and had a new manor house built there in 1840. After visiting the Rheinische Ritterakademie in Bedburg he studied in Bonn and Heidelberg law . After his military service, which he completed in 1858/59 as a one-year volunteer with the King's Hussar Regiment No. 7 in Bonn, Eugen von Loë tried twice unsuccessfully to take the auscultation exam before the Supreme Court (May 6 and December 9, 1862) , he did not receive another examination admission.
District Administrator of the Siegkreis
After the implementation of the previous district administrator of the Siegkreis, Franz Wülffing , the office was initially provided by Eugen's father, Clemens Freiherr von Loë, and subsequently by Gottfried Vinzenz von Brewer on behalf of the government . During Brewers' tenure, von Loë received his appointment as District Administrator of the Siegkreis on June 26, 1867, subject to the necessary examination. Until his final appointment on June 9, 1869, Maximilian Allert acted as district administrator by order, and Loë succeeded him on July 7, 1869. On December 15, 1904, he went into retirement on January 1, 1905 at his own request. Eugen von Loë was a member of the German Center Party .

Eugen von Loë married on June 30, 1887 in Bonn Maria Anna Freiin von Locquenghien (born March 13, 1859 in Schönebeck (Elbe); † October 25, 1945 in Lindlar), a daughter of Lieutenant General Freiherr Theodor von Locquenghien (1826–1895) and Therese-born Countess zu Stolberg-Stolberg . Shortly after the Franco-Prussian War , von Loë had a three-winged house built for his family in Siegburg on the corner of Ring- zur Alleestrasse, which also housed the district office until the turn of the century. After the Second World War , the house was demolished in favor of the new building for the girls' high school.
