Life

Flemming was born the son of pastor Johann Gottlieb Flemming and was the brother of Carl August Heinrich Flemming . After completing school at the Princely State School St. Augustin in Grimma , he studied theology with a master's degree. In 1768 he became a fortress building preacher in Dresden .

In 1772 Flemming became a substitute pastor and from 1773 pastor at the church in Kötzschenbroda , where he was to stay for over 50 years. On February 22, 1818, he celebrated his 50th anniversary in office.

In 1812, Flemming saved Kötzschenbroda from being plundered by Napoleonic soldiers through courageous intervention. In 1822, after the great village fire in the neighboring community of Naundorf , Flemming arranged for a fundraising campaign for the benefit of the victims through a corresponding appeal in the Leipziger Zeitung .

Flemming was the wealthy owner of the Wettins Höhe , a winery with a winegrower's house and its own wine press in the neighboring community of Zitzschewig . In addition, his wife Johanne Friedericke Flemming († July 10, 1823 at the age of 69) inherited a winery (later Grundhof) in the Kötzschenbrodaer Weinbergsflur. Flemming retired to the Wettins Höhe in 1824 and died there three years later.

In 1935 a street in Radebeul was named after Flemming.
