Johann Franz Jakob Schueller Knight von Schuellern zu Schrattenhofen (born June 11, 1723 in Innsbruck , † October 24, 1795 in Lienz ) was a real march commissioner in the Puster Valley , administrator of the royal canons of Lienz and castle captain on Bruck ; from the Schullern family to Schrattenhofen .

Live and act

Born as the only son of the court chamber councilor Anton Schueller Ritter von Schuellern zu Schrattenhofen and Eleonora Lachemayr von Ehrenhaimb and Madlein , he studied in Innsbruck and Siena . After completing the Rigorosum insigni cum laude , he graduated from the University of Innsbruck in utroque jure on April 8, 1747 under the Dean's Office of Josephus Biner .

From 1752 he worked in Lienz as administrator of the royal canons and as castle captain on Bruck. As a real marching commissioner in Pustertal, Schuellern was involved in the journey of Archduke Joseph's bride (later Emperor Joseph II ), Isabella von Bourbon-Parma , to Vienna in 1760 . The journey started from Parma with numerous suites (with an entourage of around 180 people with 325 draft horses and 16 riding horses) via Bozen and Brixen through the Puster Valley to Lienz and on to Vienna. The imperial courtier Prince Josef Wenzel Liechtenstein had traveled the route beforehand and made all arrangements to ensure the safety and comfort of the journey and the whereabouts of the high bride. The preparations for the trip through the Pustertal to Lienz were incumbent on the march commissioner Johann Franz Jakob Schueller von Schuellern , who had been asked to submit a detailed report on the trip to the governorate in Innsbruck. In this report he gave a detailed account of his activities.

Months beforehand, the stopping stations had been visited, the doors had been labeled and all security measures had been taken. According to the orders of the court chamber, a hundred workers and wagons were provided every day to repair the houses and streets. The city of Lienz had the paved paths filled with fine sand and the Meranertor raised and plastered at its own expense. With the greatest care, provisions and requirements for physical well-being were also considered. Schuellern's report gives clear insights into the then customary court etiquette, about the behavior of the rural population at special celebrations, about the service conditions within the royal court and finally about the enormous expenditure in terms of costs, personnel and accessories for such a trip. In the course of the preparations, the report also lists differences of opinion between the individual local authorities: ... that on August 11, 1760, a conference in Innichen was announced by the district office in Pustertal. All district authorities, the district judge and the governor were summoned to this. The change from riding and draft horses came up for discussion, whereby Lienz, if there was a lack of horses in the upper stations, had to send 241 horses to Sillian and 30 horses to Mittewald at the post station there, but all the courts had to help out if necessary. However, when it was demanded that the individual dishes also take care of the horses, the keeper of Toblach opposed this. The pros and cons of this case were debated when the Imperial and Royal Post Office officer and the Fourier arrived in Innichen and gave the assurance that the imperial court would give each station horse 12 pounds of hay and 6 pounds of oats, along with the usual postage and tip from post to post will be administered, as it really happened. This resolved the differences and ended the conference.

Johann Franz Jakob Schueller von Schuellern was married to Maria Helena von Preu zu Lusenegg and Korburg (* March 14, 1732 , † November 8, 1801 in Lienz) and had five children, including two sons. Johann Josef Anton Cornel founded the East Tyrolean branch and Johann Anton Albert founded the North Tyrolean branch.
