Trivia

The narrow-gauge railway Oschatz – Mügeln – Döbeln ran through the Schrebitz district of Görlitz until 1975 . Immediately opposite the Gut Görlitz was the Görlitz stop of this railway, which Uhlemann had built at his own expense. In the event of scheduling problems, Uhlemann's servant had to run to the stop and stop the scheduled train traffic with the words: "Wait, the privy councilor is coming!"

When sugar beet cultivation was introduced at the Mügeln Agricultural Association, he encouraged his colleagues with the following words: But now, take off your dressing gown!
