Live and act
Erdmannsdorf was born on the Zibelle manor in Lower Lusatia , where his father Heinrich Ludwig von Erdmannsdorf worked as head forester of Sorau . After the Congress of Vienna , the family moved to Zschorna and then to the Schönfeld family estate . From the age of six he received training in elementary knowledge and piano lessons from a private tutor. From Easter 1825 he attended the Blochmann Institute in Dresden . After completing his schooling, he joined the royal Saxon military. After passing the officers' exams, he joined the 2nd light cavalry regiment "Prinz Johann" in 1835 as a portepeejunker, which was stationed in Pegau . The following year he was promoted to lieutenant. At the royal court in Dresden he was appointed chamberlain and later also chamberlain . On June 1, 1840, he married Emma von Nostitz-Wallwitz († May 16, 1900 in Dresden), daughter of the Saxon Minister of War Gustav von Nostitz-Wallwitz (1789-1858). At the request of his father-in-law, he ended his military career and from then on devoted himself to agriculture, initially as part of an apprenticeship at the Zella monastery. In the autumn of 1839 Erdmannsdorf had acquired the Lautitz manor , where the young family settled. He sold this after taking over Schönfeld Palace from his father in 1842.
In 1845 Erdmannsdorf was appointed for life by the Saxon King Friedrich August II. As a member of the First Chamber of the Saxon Landtag , of which he was a member until his death in 1888, with the exception of the Revolutionary Landtag in 1849 and 1849/50. From the 1860s he was a member of the state parliament's finance deputation. He had meanwhile leased the farm in Schönfeld. In addition to his mandate in the state parliament, Erdmannsdorf was also a justice of the peace and fire commissioner of Schönfeld as well as a synodal of the Protestant regional church, president of the Lutheran Heidenmission and administrator of the Fletcher teachers' seminar . After the establishment of the Conservative State Association in the Kingdom on April 29, 1875, he was also a member of its board.
In the spring of 1882 he sold his Schönfeld Palace to Maximilian Dathe von Burgk and finally moved to Dresden, where the family previously had an apartment.
