Life

Due to the early death (1813) of his father Friedrich Franz Baron von Krafft-Ebing, Knight of the Imperial Order of St. George, member of the Imperial Knighthood of the Canton of Hegau and landlord of Zizenhausen in foreign care, he attended the grammar school in Kempten from 1818 and from 1821 in Konstanz , studied law at the Universities of Freiburg and Heidelberg . Admitted there in 1831 as a legal intern, in 1838 he became court clerk in Mannheim . After his marriage in 1839 to Clara Antonia Mittermaier (1820–1855), the daughter of the Heidelberg lawyer Carl Joseph Anton Mittermaier , he was an official assessor in Weinheim (1843) and Heidelberg (1845).

After his transfer to Weinheim (1848), Eberbach (1853) and Haslach (1854), he was promoted to Oberamtmann in Wolfach in 1857 . After the painful loss due to the untimely death of his wife and the mother of his children (1855), he married his sister-in-law Luise Mittermaier (1815–1872) in 1857.
