Johann Baptist Nesensohn

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johann Baptist Nesensohn (born September 9, 1748 in Hofen (today the city of Friedrichshafen ), † April 11, 1807 in Lippertsreute (today the city of Überlingen )) was a German priest of the Roman Catholic Church .

Live and act

Johann Baptist Nesensohn, after working as court chaplain in the Teutonic Order Land Commandery Altshausen, had been parish administrator in Lippertsreute, a patronage parish of the Teutonic Order Coming Mainau, since March 17, 1778 . During his term of office, extensive renovation work was carried out on the rectory that still exists today and on the parish church of Our Lady, which was replaced by a new building in the neo-Gothic style in 1881 and 1882 . His diary for the years 1792 to 1806 is in the Lippertsreut parish archives, in which he noted the events of the coalition wars affecting Linzgau as well as remarks on general political events, local events in Lippertsreute and the surrounding area, the grain prices of the nearby large grain market in Überlingen and weather observations. Most of Nesensohn's notes are edited. They are a valuable source of the local history of Lippertsreute and the lower Linzgau for a time when French troops were quartered several times in Lippertsreute and the place changed hands, from the Teutonic Order Commander Mainau and the Teutonic Order Altshausen to the Grand Duchy of Baden .
