Baron Johann Carl Moritz "Hans" von Thüngen (born May 6, 1804 on Gut Thüngen , Lower Franconia ; † June 23, 1850 there ) was a royal Bavarian government official .

Life

After first lessons by tutor on the family Thüngen came to Easter, first as a trainee at the High School Christian-Ernestinum in Bayreuth and was inducted into the upper middle class in the fall of 1818 as 14-year-old. There he immediately became the best of all students in his year. After attending school for two years, the teachers felt it was unnecessary to allow him to attend the upper class because of Thüngen's outstanding achievements and specialist knowledge and immediately recommended him to attend university.

From 1820 to 1826 he studied successively at the universities in Berlin , Erlangen , Heidelberg and finally in Würzburg and attended lectures in philosophy , theology and medicine . During his studies he became a member of the Arminia Berlin fraternity in 1820 . In 1828 he passed his state examination with the best possible degree (grade 1, number 1) in all subjects.

Thüngen received his first job on December 21, 1832 as assessor at the district and city court in Würzburg.

On February 26, 1835, he was transferred to Bad Kissingen as the official successor of Theodor Boveri as a district judge and was also the bathing commissioner of the local state baths there . During this tenure, he was promoted to royal chamberlain in January 1836 . In Bad Kissingen he lived in house No. 244 in Mühlgasse (today: the town hall annex on Eisenstädter Platz). His successor was Julius Freiherr von Rotenhan in 1838 .

On August 21, 1838, he was transferred to the appellate court in Aschaffenburg as a judge at his own request . On October 29, 1840, he moved to the Higher Appeal Court in Munich .

But on October 2, 1842, he returned as second director to the Court of Appeal in Aschaffenburg and was then its president from October 14, 1843 to (only officially) 1848. Because already in Munich (1840–1842) he was sick with typhus (mucous fever) and had not been able to recover sufficiently due to excessive work. In Aschaffenburg, for example, he suffered from leg paralysis in 1845, which is why he had to be given leave of absence due to illness as early as 1846. On May 7, 1848, he was "for a period of two years" from the presidency in retirement. But already two years later (1850) he died, only just 46 years old.

Thüngen lived at Ditterswind Castle . He married on December 26, 1835 in Bad Kissingen , August Countess von Bismarck (born September 2, 1810), canoness to St. Anna in Munich and daughter of Johann Heinrich Ludwig von Bismark. He had three children with her, but all of them died prematurely.
