Life

He came from the old Vogtland - Franconian noble family von Feilitzsch and was the son of Alexander Freiherr von Feilitzsch (1803–1873) and his wife Franziska, née Du Jarrys de La Roche (1809–1848). Feilitzsch was the royal Bavarian treasurer , state councilor , state minister of the interior and Bavarian plenipotentiary to the Federal Council of the German Empire .

In 1865 he became secretary in 1867 Government and 1,872 senior civil servant in the Ministry of the Interior.
