Georg Wiegner (Mayor)
Georg Wiegner (also Georgius Wiegnerus) (* August 8, 1607, probably in Dresden, although he was described in 1622 as "from Dippoldiswalde " (the place of residence was given for students); † January 14, 1689 in Dresden ) was a German lawyer and mayor.
Life
Georg Wiegner was born as the son of Paul Wiegner, manager of the Ostravorwerk , who later moved to Dippoldiswalde, and his wife Anna, daughter of Georg Winger, who was personally appointed gardener by Elector August .
In 1622 his father's former employer, senior consistorial president Sebastian Friedrich von Köttritz (1570–1628), manor owner on Sitten, the associated Vorwerk Kroptewitz and later on Beucha near Bad Lausick, sent him to the Princely and State School Grimma . From there he went to Dresden because he felt safer there due to the acts of war at the time. Through his maternal uncle, David Wingern, pastor of St. Sophien in Dresden, he was employed in 1628 by the Appellate and Consistorial Councilor Leonhard Köppeln, whose children he taught as a private tutor. From 1629 he administered the Pfennigmeister office . Leonhard Köppeln promoted him because he recognized that he was qualified as a notary and made sure that he was trained by Privy Councilor Gabriel Tüntzel von Tunzenhausen (1576–1646) in 1636 and studied law in Jena.
He came into contact with Friedrich von Metzsch (1579–1655), Saxon-Coburg privy councilor and consistorial president, whom he met in 1636 on the trip to Regensburg on the occasion of the coronation of Ferdinand III. , accompanied.
In 1650 Georg Wiegner was elected to the city council of Dresden and held this office of councilor until 1688. In 1663 he was given the honorary office of school administration and held this office until 1677. In 1665 he was appointed judge and from 1671 to 1677 he administered the religious office.
On May 1, 1677 he was elected one of three Dresden mayors and he was given the management of the hospital office. In that year, on December 29th, he led the armed Dresden citizens to the Altmarkt and raised the flag donated by the Saxon Elector Johann Georg II .
After the death of Mayor Paul Zincke on October 1, 1678, he swapped the hospital office for the bridge office .
In February 1678 the "Most Serene Gathering" took place in Dresden, at which there was a family reunion of Johann Georg II. And his relatives and which was a high point of the baroque festival culture. The event was secured by the four Dresden Citizens' Companies, led by Mayor Georg Wiegner, and the Croatian personal company, which were supposed to guarantee the safety of the Elector and the guests.
In 1679, after the death of Mayor Matthäus Schlintzig (1602–1679), he received the inspection of the church box at the Kreuzkirche and administered it until his death.
On July 10, 1680, the building land in front of the brick gate, "located behind the clay pits and brick kilns", was sold by the mayor Georg Wiegner to the council of Dresden and within a very short time the cemetery (today: Elias cemetery ) was created in an open field, so that the many plague dead could be buried.
