Life

His parents were Malte I. zu Putbus (1671–1750), who was raised to the rank of imperial count in 1727, and Magdalene Juliane Countess of Promnitz (1666–1728). After the Pomeranian line of the Lords of Putbus died out, the father , who came from the Danish Podebusk line , inherited the Rügen estates.

Moritz Ulrich took his permanent seat in Putbus , enlarged the complex and the castle, which had existed for centuries: in 1723 he took over the management of the family property. From 1725 he had Putbus Castle Park laid out in baroque style and in 1726 a hunting lodge was built on the Tempelberg (at the time called Fürstenberg ) in the Granitz in front of the Granitzhaus (demolished in 1852). In 1730 he added a three-storey observation tower, called Belvedere , and also called a temple because of a wooden sculpture (demolished in 1810). In 1755 he ceded the indebted Putbus rule to his eldest son Malte Friedrich . In 1744 he acquired Boldewitz , which he sold again in 1762.
