Johann Michael (II.) Imperial Knight and Edler von Poschinger (born May 18, 1794 in Frauenau , † October 31, 1863 in Regen ) was a Bavarian manufacturer and member of the state parliament .
Life
The son of the hut owner Georg Benedikt von Poschinger studied at the University of Landshut and became a member of the Corps Bavaria Landshut around 1813 . In 1829 he took over the Hofmark Frauenau with the Poschinger glass factory from his father. On February 5, 1834, he married the Zwiesel miller's daughter Anna Maria Schweikl (1810–1878). His brother was the member of the state parliament, Benedikt von Poschinger .
In 1835 Johann Michael built the mirror factory in Oberfrauenau and the associated grinding shop on the Kleiner Regen . In 1848 he opened the Moosauhütte in (Unter) Frauenau. This hut ( Poschingerhütte ) still exists today.
The high quality of the plate glass produced there was officially recognized at the First General German Industrial Exhibition in Munich in 1854 . As a result, Poschingersche Glas was increasingly able to set itself apart from its Bohemian models. From 1856 to 1861 von Poschinger was a member of the Bavarian state parliament .
On August 16, 1860, the hollow glass factory in Oberfrauenau, the so-called Neuhütte , burned down , causing great damage. On April 1, 1861, he acquired the broken glassworks in Theresienthal with all properties and glass supplies from the royal bank in Nuremberg for 32,000 guilders.
In October 1863 Johann Michael von Poschinger died in a stagecoach accident . He came from Frankfurt am Main with his son Nepomuk and made one last stop in Regen. Ten paces from the post office, the front wheel unraveled and the car fell over, breaking Poschinger's neck. The body was picked up the next day and taken to the estate in Oberfrauenau. He left a fortune of well over two million guilders.
