Joseph Gabriel Freiherr von Stengel (born February 10, 1771 in Mannheim ; † September 21, 1848 there ) was a senior Baden lawyer and administrative officer.
Live and act
Joseph Gabriel von Stengel came from the baronial line of the Lords of Stengel . He was the son of the Palatinate Chancellery and State Councilor Johann Georg Freiherr von Stengel (1721–1798) and his wife Maria Christine Edle von Hauer (1734–1796) and the younger brother of the Bavarian State Councilor and art patron Stephan von Stengel (1750–1822).
Stengel studied law, became a state commissioner for the Electoral Palatinate of Bavaria and entered the state service as a result of the transition from the Electoral Palatinate to Baden on the right bank of the Rhine. In 1806 he was appointed to the Baden government council in Mannheim, in 1810 to the district council and finally in 1814 to the director of the Neckar district (seat of Mannheim). In this function he accepted the solemn oath of allegiance of the Mannheim civil servants to the new Grand Duke Ludwig I on February 12, 1819 . From March 1819, Joseph Gabriel von Stengel worked as a judge at the highest court of the Grand Duchy of Baden , the Oberhofgericht in Mannheim, from which the Higher Regional Court of Karlsruhe later emerged, downgrading its importance . Since 1836 he had the rank of Chief Judge and Privy Councilor, 1st class.
His older brother Ernst Joseph von Stengel served as Chancellor of the Badischer Oberhofgericht, followed by his son Franz von Stengel (1803–1870), Joseph Gabriel's nephew.
Joseph Gabriel von Stengel was married to Anna von Wuest († 1845). The marriage resulted in 3 sons:
- Leopold von Stengel (1804–1881), Member of the Government of the Lower Rhine District in Mannheim, ∞ Caroline von Quadt (1814–1869)
- Gustav von Stengel, Chamberlain of Baden and district forester in Wiesloch
- Franz von Stengel , senior bailiff in Wertheim , ∞ Auguste von Schenk
Joseph Gabriel von Stengel and his wife are buried in the main cemetery in Mannheim , where their high-quality tomb with relief has been preserved. Next to it is the tombstone of his son Leopold von Stengel and his family.
The chief judge had been commander of the order of the Zähringer lion since 1830 . In 1832 he published a pamphlet against dueling at German universities, with the title: "About the duels at German universities with a special reference to the Grand Duchy of Baden" .
