Joseph Carl Rosenbaum
Joseph Carl Rosenbaum (born July 5, 1770 in Vienna ; † December 26, 1829 there ) was an Austrian civil servant and employee of Prince Nikolaus II Esterházy .
Life
Rosenbaum initially worked in Eisenstadt , from 1790 in the court bookkeeping of the princely Esterházy estates, later as the secretary of Count Karl Esterházy . In 1797, however, he had to leave the Esterházy service because Prince Rosenbaum disapproved of the relationship with the court opera singer Therese Gassmann , the daughter of the composer and conductor Florian Gassmann .
That is why he returned to Vienna in 1797 and acquired the house conscription number 337 (1, Ledererhof 9) in the city, and in 1816 also a summer residence with a garden ( Schaumburgergrund ; Rosenbaumgarten).
Joseph Carl Rosenbaum and Therese Gassmann married on June 11, 1800.
In 1809 Rosenbaum was the main participant in the robbery of Joseph Haydn's skull .
