Life

Rammelburg Castle - residence of Johann Friedrich von Stammer and his family

He came from the old Saxon noble family von Stammer . Adrian Adam von Stammer (* 1659 ; † 1704 ), Prussian Privy Councilor, Collegiate Governor in Quedlinburg and Knight of the Order of St. John , was his father and Sophia Maria von Stammer, née von Selmnitz († 14 February 1705), his mother. Hans Rudolph von Stammer was his brother. Like many representatives of noble families, he mostly renounced the title of nobility .

Like many members of his family, he embarked on an administrative career and became chamberlain at the court of Dresden . As such, he was transferred to the office of supervisor over the county of Mansfeld in Eisleben . Since this required an on-site presence, he moved to the Rammelburg Castle in the Harz Mountains, which was the center of the Rammelburg office and which his family had had in permanent pledging from the Counts of Mansfeld since 1602 for the sum of 100,000 Reichstalers borrowed.

Stammer was acquainted with August Hermann Francke .

Shortly before his childless death, in 1720 he sold the Rammelburg office to Christian August Freiherr von Friesen († 1737), who later became lieutenant general.
