Hans Georg Alexander Friedrich von Köller

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hans Georg Alexander Friedrich von Köller (born May 10, 1752 in Hersfeld , † March 30, 1820 in Jasenitz , Province of Pomerania ) was a Prussian manor owner and senior official.

He came from the Pomeranian noble family Köller . But he was born in Hersfeld, where his father Friedrich August von Köller was a colonel in the service of Hesse-Kassel . His younger brother Carl Ludwig Julius von Köller became head forest master in Prussian services.

Hans Georg Alexander Friedrich von Köller came to Berlin in 1764, where he first attended the Joachimsthalsche Gymnasium , but became a cadet in 1765 . In 1770 he came briefly to the Gensdarmes regiment , then to the “von Apenburg” dragoon regiment . In 1775 he was made a lieutenant and in 1784 took his leave .

He managed his goods Cantreck , Dischenhagen , Luttmanshagen , Hammer and Dobberphul in Pomerania .

In 1795 he was elected as the successor to the late Adam von Grape as district administrator of the Greifenberg district and appointed by the king.

In 1804/05 he rose to the position of President of the Chamber in Posen in what was then the province of South Prussia . At the same time he sold his goods located in the Greifenberg district to Otto Ulrich von Dewitz , former president of the Mecklenburg-Strelitz Secret Council. The province of South Prussia was of course lost again to Prussia in the Peace of Tilsit in 1807.

Köller became general landscape director of the Pomeranian landscape . In 1811 he bought the Jasenitz castle estate north of Stettin from the Prussian state , which had previously been a sovereign domain and which now received the rights of a manor . He died here in 1820.

Köller was married to Caroline Eleonore von Posern. His son Matthias von Köller , born in 1797, was also general landscape director of the Pomeranian landscape.
