Karl Friedrich Funk von Senftenau

Karl Friedrich Funk von Senftenau (* 1748 in Ansbach ; † March 26, 1828 in Blomberg ) was a Lippe court marshal and from 1810 to 1828 chancellor in the Principality of Lippe and thus head of government.

From 1774 he was a councilor. When Chancellor Dietrich August König from Lemgo died on January 6, 1810 , Funk von Senftenau became his successor. Unlike König, von Senftenau was not an authority for Princess Pauline (1802 to 1820 regent) and she preferred to take over the affairs of government herself. After a short illness, Karl Friedrich Funk von Senftenau died on March 26, 1828, before he was 81. His successor as head of government was Friedrich Wilhelm Helwing .

Karl Friedrich Funk von Senftenau was married to Christine Hildebrand. Her son was the castle captain and later court marshal Carl August Stephan Heinrich Funck von Senftenau (born November 26, 1792 in Detmold; † January 7, 1856 there), who married Julie von Meysenbug in 1827, the eldest sister Malwida von Meysenbugs .
