biography

The eldest son of the district administrator Johann Baptist Freiherren von Waldstätten , became a Lower Austrian estate (knighted) in 1808 , then in 1824 district chief of the district under the Vienna Woods (Vienna).

On October 24, 1829, he was appointed court advisor and chief police director in Vienna. Under the impression of the July Revolution of 1830 , as police director, he pointed to the well-known "phlegm" of the Austrian, to his "childlike disposition" and the "lively feeling of obedience and subordination". Without ambiguity, the steward praised the "undyed, natural, loyalty that oozes from deep breasts", the "patriotic joy of unspoiled core natures".
