Gustav Sigmund Reinhard Friedrich Nepomuk von Gemmingen (born July 1, 1871 in Bürg ; † August 30, 1943 there ) was a Württemberg officer and chamberlain and landowner in Bürg and Rappenau .

Life

He was the son of Gustav von Gemmingen (1813-1894) and his second wife Franziska von Mourat. From 1879 he was in the Jesuit boarding school Stella Matutina in Feldkirch . After the Portepeef Ensign examination in Berlin in 1890, he joined the 1st Württemberg Uhlan Regiment, King Karl No. 19, and attended the war school in Potsdam.

He was the personal adjutant of Duke Robert von Württemberg at the funeral of Queen Victoria in England in 1891. In 1901 he was awarded the Knight's Cross First Class of the Frederick Order . In 1902 he married Olga Countess von Beroldingen and from that year served in the Uhlan regiment "King Wilhelm I" in Ludwigsburg . He was later awarded the title of Chamberlain . During the First World War he was initially in command of Montmédy , and later he headed a camp for captured French officers in Ellwangen .

He spent his twilight years on his property in Bürg, while he had already handed over the property in Rappenau to his son Franz Maria Hans Weiprecht (1905–1945) in 1933. In 1936 he was seriously injured in a traffic accident on the road from Neuenstadt am Kocher to Neckarsulm . The accident car had been driven by one of his daughters.

Two of three sons died in World War II.
