Life

He was the son of Christian Ernst von Schütz and his wife Johanna Charlotte von Schütz. Like many representatives of his family , he also embarked on an administrative career at the Dresden court and rose to the position of governor.

His possessions included the Erdmannsdorf manor below the Augustusburg in the Saxon Ore Mountains .

His wife's uncle, Colonel Johann Friedrich von Nostitz, had named Henrietta Wilhelmina von Schütz, née von Nostitz and her sister, as heirs in his will deposited in Langensalza in 1756 in the event of childless death. The succession actually took place in 1770.

Julius Ernst von Schütz was also active as an author. In 1762, for example, in Stößel in Chemnitz, he published the economic concerns about all kinds of things affecting home economics .

Of fundamental importance for the history of the Saxon Ore Mountains, however, is his standard work Historisch-Oeconomische Beschreibung von der Schloss und Amte Augustusburg in Chur-Sachsen . This book was also published by Büschel in Leipzig in 1770.

In 1761 he was elected a member of the Leopoldina . He was a member of the Leipzig Economic Society and an honorary member of the Upper Lusatian Economic Bee Society .
