Josef Marsil Wilhelm Xaver von Nagel zur Loburg (* May 16, 1715 at Bentheim Castle ; † December 30, 1777 at Loburg Castle ) was the initiator and builder of Loburg Castle . His grave has not been preserved in Ostbevern.

Life

In 1716, his father, Johann Caspar Friedrich von Nagel zu Loburg, married Elisabeth Bernhardina Theodora von Valcke, the former canoness in Nottuln Abbey . The father died early, so that the mother married one from Böselager zu Nehlen. In a court settlement in 1755, the mother demanded a sum of 18,000 Reichstalers from the son as compensation. On June 4, 1747, he married his cousin Anna Adolphine von Nagel zu Herl, (daughter of Matthias Werner von Nagel zu Herl and Freiin von Neuhoff called Ley) who had previously also been a canon in Nottuln Abbey . For Marriage asks him Franz Egon von Furstenberg a Ehedispens out.

Military career

In 1737 he became captain of a company of the late lieutenant colonel Cornareus in Münster and was appointed regimental treasurer of the Prince-Bishop of Münster's Argenteau regiment on foot. 1741 Obrist-Wachtmeister patent in the Prince Bishop of Münster Wenger Regiment. 1744 commanders of Coesfeld with the offices of Horstmar and Ahaus. Colonel of the Prince Bishop of Münster Wenger Regiment. 1748 Transfer of the von Schadesche Regiment and a lifelong Colonel fee. 1757 General Sergeant Pat the Imperial Army located Electoral Cologne and other under the command of the Elector Clemens August stationary troops. 1763 Lieutenant General of the Munster Saxe-Gotha Regiment on foot and secret council in Munster.

The palace construction

The plant around 1760

The precarious financial situation of the Nagel family from the end of the 17th century is reflected in debt registers, bonds and the lawsuits about them, but also in the estate regulations of individual family members. The lavish lifestyle could hardly be financed from feudal relationships. Therefore, ecclesiastical or military careers were chosen in order to be taken care of by offices and pensions, especially at the episcopal court in Munster. In addition, ambitious undertakings were pursued, such as the acquisition of a knight's seat directly from the empire by the noble Ingelheim family around 1744. This was associated with the prospect of increasing rank. In this context, the castle in need of repair is demolished in 1760. According to plans by Johann Conrad Schlaun , a small baroque castle with an oval courtyard and broad moats was built by 1766, over which three drawbridges lead. The castle itself is two-story with a mansard roof , has a double staircase in front of the central front and a three-sided projecting central projection. The cost of this alone must have exceeded everyone, because in 1769 the costly increase in status in Ingelheim was given up again. His son Clemens August Theodor Josef von Nagel zur Loburg will inherit not only goods, but above all the debts of the father. He finally had to auction Loburg and the Imperial Knights' Estate Oberingelheim.
