Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Guttenberg (born September 15, 1750 in Mömpelgard , † January 20, 1841 in Bonfeld ) was landlord in Bonfeld, Baden Chamberlain and Knight's Councilor of the Kraichgau knight's canton .

Life

He was the son of Baden-Durlachschen and Brandenburg-Ansbachschen Chamber President and Governor of Württemberg-Mömpelgard , Reinhard von Gemmingen (1698–1773), and Maria Magdalena von Bärenfels (1708–1780). He studied in Tübingen and Göttingen and was a member of the ZN student order . After the death of his father, he entered the Gemmingen condominium as his heir , where he shared administration and property with his cousin Karl Friedrich Reinhard von Gemmingen (1739-1822) and his uncle Philipp von Gemmingen (1702-1785). When the condominium was dissolved in 1776, Ludwig Eberhard took possession of the old Bonfeld lower castle. Because Karl Friedrich Reinhard with the newly built Bonfeld Upper Castle and Philipp with the Guttenberg Castle and its accessories had received significantly better goods than the ruinous old lower castle , he received compensation of 6,000 guilders from both of them.

From 1784 to 1787 he had the classicist Bonfeld Lower Castle built on the site of the old lower castle in Bonfeld . After the childless death of his uncle Philipp's sons (1702–1785), Ludwig Eberhard and his heirs also fell to Guttenberg Castle and the Dammhof .

Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Guttenberg was a member of the Württemberg state assemblies from 1815 to 1819 as a baron with viril voting rights . Eberhard Ludwig von Gemmingen-Bürg represented him there from 1815 to 1817, and Eberhard von Varnbuler in 1819. He was a member of the First Chamber of the Baden Estates Assembly from 1819 to 1841 as a representative of the manorial nobility below the Murg.

He was buried along with numerous other relatives in the baron district of the Bonfeld cemetery , where the tomb for him and his mother and his wife has been preserved.

family

From 1775 he was married to Luise Auguste Freiin von Saint-André (1752-1815). The three sons Ludwig Reinhard, Karl Friedrich and Philipp Albrecht managed the paternal inheritance again as a condominium, which lasted until 1932. Two daughters were married to the Württemberg Minister of War, Ernst von Hügel.

  2. According to the information in the biographical handbook of the Württemberg state parliament members by Frank Raberg on p. 253, Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Guttenberg is said to have belonged to the First Chamber of the Baden Estates Assembly from 1819 to 1841, but was only present in person from 1819 to 1822. This information contradicts Ludwig Bauer and Bernhard Gißler, who in the handbook on the members of the First Chamber of the Badische Ständeversammlung from 1819 - 1912 , published by Fidelitas, Karlsruhe 1913 (Fifth Edition), p. 83 give different information. Accordingly, it was not Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Guttenberg, who was treated here, but his namesake, Baron Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Presteneck, who belonged to the First Chamber of Baden from 1819 to 1822. According to the information provided by Bauer and Gißler on p. 83, Baron Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Presteneck also died in 1841. The year of death would have been the same as that of Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Guttenberg. However, this does not match the year of death of Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen in 1831 , who, as the Grand Ducal Chamberlain of Presteneck, would rather correspond in name to the information given by Bauer and Gißler. It is possible that the Bauer and Gißler manual was a printing error, so that 1841 was mistakenly given instead of the correct year of death 1831? Raberg may have made a consequential mistake and, because of the year of death given by Bauer and Gißler in 1841, assumed that the representative in question of the landlord nobility below the Murg in the First Badische Kammer in the years 1819 to 1822 was Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Guttenberg († 1841) and not Ludwig Eberhard von Gemmingen-Presteneck († 1831) could have acted?
