Johannes Evangelist von Dalberg (born June 21, 1909 in Datschitz ; † April 21, 1940 ibid) was the last male ancestor of the noble von Dalberg family .

origin

Johannes Evangelist was one of two sons of Friedrich X. , Herr zu Datschitz (born January 29, 1863 - March 9, 1914) and his wife Karoline (* January 9, 1874 - November 13, 1935), daughter of Joseph Anton von Raab and Maria Ludovika von Bernhausen .

Life

Datschitz Castle

John the Evangelist was five years old when his father died. His older brother was also a minor at the time . The mother managed the property. Johannes Evangelist first attended a private school, then the Realschule and the Realgymnasium in Jihlava and Brno , where he finished school at the age of 14. In 1918 Johannes Evangelist changed his citizenship when Czechoslovakia was founded and lost his title with the general abolition of the title of nobility. He owned an automobile . After his older brother, Joseph Maria Friedrich (born April 29, 1906 in Datschitz; † October 16, 1929 in Vienna ), his mother in 1935 and his aunt Sophie in 1937, he was left alone in Datschitz Castle . He had literary ambitions, loved books and the theater. The Great Depression hit his possessions too. For economic reasons he sold the estate in Rodenbach in 1934 . The family archive - until then kept in the goods administration in Aschaffenburg - he gave as a deposit to the Hessian State Archive in Darmstadt .

Johannes Evangelist remained unmarried and died in 1940 at the age of 31. The Dalberg family died out of the male line. He was inherited by his cousin, Maria Anna von und zu Dalberg , who was married to Prince Franz Emanuel Konstantin zu Salm and Salm-Salm (1876–1965). The Dalbergian legacy (winery and castle in Wallhausen ) has been in the family of the Princes zu Salm-Salm, whose respective heirs are also called zu Salm-Dalberg , currently Prince Michael zu Salm-Salm . However, the goods located in Czechoslovakia were expropriated in 1945 .
