Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Baron Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim or Hontheim (born September 26, 1668 , † October 25, 1723 ) was an Oberamtmann , General War Commissioner, Minister of State ("Budget Minister") and diplomat of the Electoral Palatinate .

origin

Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim was born the son of Metternich's bailiff von Neckarsteinach . His parents were Johann Wilhelm von Hontheim (born January 19, 1630; † after 1685), who is documented there in 1677 and 1685, and Maria Elisabeth von Schönberg. His grandparents were the electorate councilor Johann Wolfgang (von) Hontheim (* April 27, 1588; † January 23, 1641) and (⚭ 1626) Margarethe Morbach († May 17, 1633). His brother was Philipp Karl von Hundheim .

The ruins ( Burgstall ) of a hilltop castle of unknown name, which was abandoned around 1200 and is now called Burg Hundheim , is located near Neckarhausen , about three kilometers upstream from Neckarsteinach on the Hessian side. However, this is not the original headquarters of the von Hundheim family. The von Hundheim come from a Trier and Eifel ministerial family Hontheim , which was ennobled in 1622. The von Hontheim (Hundheim) owned the castles of Densborn in the Vulkaneifel together with the von Anethan .

Trier Auxiliary Bishop Johann Nikolaus von Hontheim (1701–1790) was the son of a cousin of Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim and had the same coat of arms.

Life

Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim was from 1694 to 1710 the Electorate of the Palatinate in Dilsberg . He was also appointed Oberamtmann von Kreuznach . In October 1696 he was appointed to the Electoral Palatinate government councilor with seat and voting rights and before 1700 he was appointed to the council of war. He was mostly represented by administrators in the offices of Dilsberg and Kreuznach.

In 1697/98 Hundheim and government councilor Johann Heinrich Violät were Catholics as well as the reformed government councilor Johann Matthias Haumüller von Mühlenthal members of a so-called " Admodiation Commission ", which was supposed to divide the church property in the Electoral Palatinate between the denominations.

Ilvesheim Castle, around 1700; the side wings were added in 1750 and 1773

In 1698 Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim bought Ilvesheim , Lützelsachsen , Hornbach and Kreidach from their pawnbroker Count Johann Jakob von Hamilton († 1717) and was enfeoffed in 1700 by Elector Johann Wilhelm von der Pfalz (1658-1716). Around 1700 he had Ilvesheim Castle rebuilt on the foundation walls of the Erlenburg Castle, which was destroyed in 1689 , probably by Johann Adam Breunig (* around 1660; † 1727). In 1714 Hundheim had the Ilvesheimer Dorf- Weistum from 1595 and 1606 renewed.

At the suggestion of the fortress civil engineer Square Major Francisco de Robiano Hundheim proposed to the Elector Johann Wilhelm in 1699 not to award the fortifications in Mannheim to reduce costs in the future more freehand, but to "General Entrepeneure to auction"; the public auction took place in 1700.

In 1701 Hundheim laid the foundation stone for the St. Rochus Church (laid down around 1839) of the Capuchin monastery in Mannheim in the name of the Elector together with the Speyer Auxiliary Bishop Peter Cornelius Beyweg (1670–1744) . During this time he lived in Heidelberg , where at least one of his children was born.

In March 1702 Hundheim took part in the Kurpfalz district council in Frankfurt am Main for the Electoral Palatinate . While the district had previously pursued a neutral or France-friendly policy, it now swung over to the emperor's side through the Palatinate Elector represented by Hundheim. In Frankfurt, in the initial phase of the War of the Spanish Succession (1701–1714), it was decided to join the Hague Alliance and join the Austrian Circle , but the Bavarian Circle was rejected. Then in the same month Hundheim signed the alliance agreement of four Reich circles at the " Nördlinger Association Day" as a representative of the Kurrheinische Kreis .

From Count Joseph Philibert von Lechrain, Hundheim acquired Eppstein in 1702 and in 1705, as a former Oberstein fief, possessions in what is now Rheinhessen and half of the Edigheim court . In 1707 he took over the so-called "Herrenschäferei" - the shepherd's farm that had been in the Palatinate until then - in Seckenheim with grazing rights in the Neckarau area .

War Commissioner General and Diplomat in Düsseldorf

From 1703 to 1716 Hundheim was General War Commissioner in Düsseldorf . The General War Commissariat, built by Matteo Alberti († 1735) from 1709 to 1713 , occupied the entire south side of Hafenstrasse (today: Akademiestrasse) at the old Berger Hafen . After the closure of the Palatinate authorities in Düsseldorf, Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim acquired the property. The Electoral Palatinate bought it back from the Hundheim family in 1773. Until its destruction in 1944, it was known as the " Hondheimsches Palais ".

In 1705, the diplomat Johann Christoph von Urbich (1653–1715) in Düsseldorf, among other things, had talks with the influential Hundheim council to get Elector Johann Wilhelm to approve the initiation of a marriage between Elisabeth Christine von Braunschweig-Wolfenbüttel and the later Emperor Karl VI. to move from Habsburg .

On March 22, 1709, Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim signed a support contract for the Electoral Palatinate in Cologne with the imperial commander-in-chief of the Allies in the War of the Spanish Succession , Prince Eugene of Savoy (1663-1736).

Conrad Reiser († after 1750) from Schnaittach dedicated his legal disputation text Difficilis conditionum materia Juridicè expensa to Hundheim in 1710 . In the appropriation Hundheim is referred to as " Commendatorus in Waldeck".

In 1711 Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim served for a few months in Düsseldorf and at Schwetzingen Palace as Vice Chancellor when Elector Johann Wilhelm assumed the office of Vicar after the death of Emperor Joseph I von Habsburg (April 17th) . After talks in Düsseldorf between Eugen von Savoyen and Johann Wilhelm von der Pfalz at the beginning of May 1711, Hundheim accompanied the prince on behalf of the elector on his onward journey with the “yacht” to The Hague to discuss the position of the troops with him. On October 12, 1711, Baron von Hundheim and the Palatinate delegation took part in the election of Charles VI in the Imperial Cathedral of St. Bartholomew in Frankfurt am Main . to the Roman-German emperor. Hundheim and the Kurmainzische Grand Chamberlain Johann Philipp von Stadion-Warthausen (1652-1741) explored an exchange of the offices and places Hirschhorn and Budenheim, but this did not materialize.

With the envoy of the Spanish Netherlands , Court Chancellor Count Philipp Ludwig Wenzel von Sinzendorf (1671–1742), he concluded the Treaty of Frankfurt am Main on the rule of Obergeldern for the Electoral Palatinate on December 29, 1711 . In it was an exchange of the Palatinate possessions in Italy, which by marrying Anna Katharina Konstanze of Poland-Lithuania (1619-1651) and Sweden and Anna Maria Luisa de 'Medici (1667-1743) to Jülich-Berg and Pfalz -Neuburg were planned against Erkelenz and Viersen . The two delegations met in Frankfurt on the occasion of the imperial coronation of Charles VI. 

Hundheim negotiated with the Prussian envoy Gustav von Mardefeld (1664–1728) in 1711/12 in Ilvesheim and Düsseldorf about the implementation of the Electoral Palatinate Declaration of Religion in the County of Sponheim, which was part of the Electoral Palatinate .

Negotiations on the peace agreements of Utrecht and Rastatt

From 1712 to 1713 Hundheim was ambassador to the Electorate of the Palatinate at the Peace Congress in Utrecht . The offer of the English negotiator Lord Thomas Strafford (1672-1739) to procure Prince Elector Johann Wilhelm von der Pfalz against the cession of the Upper Palatinate to the Electorate of Bavaria the title of king and rule over Sardinia , he refused. During the siege of Freiburg im Breisgau in October 1713 Hundheim held a secret conversation in Biesheim with the French Marshal Claude-Louis-Hector de Villars (1653-1734) and the Alsatian general manager Félix Le Peletier (1663-1723), seigneur de La Houssaye, in which the readiness for peace negotiations was explored on both sides.

Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim traveled with State Minister Johann Christoph Beckers (* 1666; † after 1714) to Westerstetten in Mainz , Metz and Strasbourg and negotiated between Prince Eugen and Villars. Hundheim played a decisive role in the preliminary negotiations for the Peace of Rastatt and was summoned to Rastatt himself at the request of Marshal Villars by Prince Eugene in the final phase of the negotiations . The peace was made on March 6, 1714.

In the period that followed, Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim, the Electoral Palatinate, which initially left her troops in the Upper Palatinate, tried to find an "equivalent" for the troop withdrawal. As an "Extraordinair Ambassadeur" ( special ambassador ) from the Palatinate , he tried in 1714 in Vienna , in exchange for the Upper Palatinate, to win Luxembourg or the Upper District of Geldern for the Palatinate. This led to a convention between France and Austria, which the generals Léonor Marie du Maine du Bourg (1655-1739) and Hubert Dominik Graf de Saix, Baron d'Arnant (* around 1653; † 1729), on January 8, 1715 in Strasbourg closed.

In 1715 Hundheim was appointed court chancellor or "Ober-Cantzlar" as the successor to Baron Philipp Konstanz von Gise (1644–1722) . The Düsseldorf lawyer Ludolf Heinrich Hake (* 1677; † after 1720) dedicated him, the privy councilor and treasurer Count Adam von Diamantstein († 1730) as well as the court chamber president and Jülich-Bergisch chancellor Freiherr Johann Friedrich II. Von Schaesberg (1663 / 64–1723) ) this year the font Dicaelogica De Duobus Contractibus Realibus… Scholiis .

Gelsdorf Castle, mansion

In March 1716 Hundheim was enfeoffed by Elector Johann Wilhelm as Duke of Jülich and in December 1716 by Archbishop Joseph Clemens of Cologne with the bishopric of Gelsdorf , to which Ipplendorf also belonged. He had acquired the property from Count Ludwig Peter (1674–1750) and Julius August (1680–1753) from Marck-Schleiden-Saffenberg . Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim had Gelsdorf Palace built in the late Baroque style in 1716/17 . His heirs sold the rule in 1737 for 63,000 Gulden Rheinisch to the Palatine court chancellor Jakob Tillmann von Hallberg (1681–1744).

On May 24, 1716 Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim represented the seriously ill Johann Wilhelm von der Pfalz as godfather to the baptism of a member of the Süss-Oppenheimer family from Heidelberg under the baptismal name "Johann Wilhelm" in the Düsseldorf palace chapel . In June 1716 Hundheim and privy councilor Baron Sigismund von Bevern (1673-1738) zu Landsberg signed the documents about the elector's demise.

Minister of State in Heidelberg and Mannheim

In Düsseldorf, Johann Wilhelm's successor, Karl III. Philipp von der Pfalz (1661–1742) an interim administration on November 21, 1716, to which Hundheim belonged as Minister of State. Hundheim was replaced as "Minister of War" (General War Commissioner) by Count Edmund Florenz von Hatzfeldt-Wildenburg-Weisweiler (1674–1757). As a “secret budget minister” and “conference minister”, he essentially performed the duties of a finance minister. The Electoral Palatinate authorities were relocated from Düsseldorf to Heidelberg and Mannheim (1720).

In 1717 Hundheim, the Palatinate court chancellor Jakob Tillmann von Hallberg and the Austrian government chancellor Freiherr Johann Engelhard von Coreth (1658–1724) were led by Privy Councilor Heinrich Franz at an evening party in Neuburg hosted by Colonel Hunter Baron Carl Sigmund von Tänzl zu Trazberg Xaver von Wiser (1665–1749) attacked. He accused them of unfaithfulness in the negotiations about the transfer of the Upper Palatinate: “One should give Baron v. Hundheim the word: Burn equivalent with gold on the forehead ” . Wiser was elector Karl III. Philipp was placed under arrest in Monschau and responded by publishing a diatribe. In 1721, the Reichshofrat sentenced Wiser to a fine of 1,000 ducats. He also had to apologize to Hundheim. Elector Karl Theodor visited Heinrich Franz Xaver von Wiser when he was allegedly 82 years old and had been in prison for 32 years.

Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim, Elector Karl Philipp and Minister von Hatzfeldt took part in a new union of the silver and lead mines Wildberg and Heidberg in 1718 . The Elector, who stayed in Neuburg from May 1717 to August 1718, visited Hundheim in August 1718 together with Ludwig VIII of Hesse-Darmstadt (1691–1768) and Colonel Chamberlain Johann Ferdinand von Sickingen (* around 1664; † 1719) to a hunting trip in Ilvesheim, where 60 deer were stretched.

In 1720, Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim brokered a dispute between the Prussian envoy Philipp Reinhold von Hecht (1677–1735) and the English envoy James Haldane (1692–1742) with the Electorate of the Palatinate stable master of Velen, who both were Protestants and were able to provide coaches and refused horses. In 1721, Elector Karl Philipp Hundheim and chamberlain canon Heinrich Wilhelm von Sickingen (1674–1757) commissioned an austerity program to set up ten new regiments.

In Mannheim, Elector Hundheim left the square GG (Hof IV) near the palace (today: A3). It was sold to Babo's family by his descendants. In 1722 Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim acquired the Strassenheimer Hof from the Horneck von Weinheim family in Ingelheim , which his heirs pledged in 1746. In Ladenburg , the Hundheim owned the Botzheim estates. In 1724 his widow Barbara Theresia bought the paving mill there for 1,800 guilders. When Lothar Friedrich von Hundheim died in 1723, he is said to have left a fortune of 500,000 guilders, "half a ton of gold".

Hundheim's successor as Minister of State was Baron Heinrich von Kageneck (1668–1743), who was also appointed chairman of the “HofCameral Conference”.

In 1728 Damian Emerich von Metternich-Müllenark pledged Neckarsteinach to Hundheim's widow for 48,000 guilders. This also invested capital with the bankers Moses and Emanuel Mayer Reinganum - nephews of Lemle Moses Reinganum - which was apparently soon lost. The Colonel von Sternenfels also had outstanding outstanding amounts of 15,000 guilders. The family got increasingly into financial difficulties and was forced to sell various properties.
