Peter Immanuel Dahn

Peter Immanuel Dahn (* around 1735 in Sobernheim , † after 1802, presumably in Kreuznach ) was a lawyer in the service of the ecclesiastical property administration of the Electoral Palatinate . In 1772 he wrote a general description of the Oberamt Kreuznach in the Electoral Palatinate .

Life

Peter Immanuel Dahn was born in Sobernheim in the Electoral Palatinate. This branch of the Dahn family, which was based in Meisenheim , Sobernheim, Kreuznach, Heidelberg and Mannheim , goes back to Johann Henrich Dahn (1647–1708) from Edesheim , Count of Nassau-Diezischer and baron Boos von Waldeckscher joint bailiff of the offices Boos and Abtweiler , Office cellar to Meisenheim. Peter Immanuel Dahn was his great-grandson and probably a son of Philipp Julius Dahn (* around 1705, † after 1784), Count of the Lion Chief Councilor and cellar of Florent-Joseph de Lâtre de Feignies (1677–1762) at Gonnesweiler on Marienpfort .

Philipp Julius Dahn owned the free aristocratic Pfalz-Simmernsche Hofgut in Sobernheim and in 1770 acquired the neighboring free aristocratic knight's seat of the Latre de Feignies family. In 1753 he certified testimony as a notary in Sobernheim about the shooting of Christian Fuchs in Gemünden by farmers from Laufersweiler , in 1754 he took possession of as a notary in the name of Marie Catherine Heeser von Lilienthal and the baroness Maria Eva von Metzenhausen (* around 1707; † 1781) the rule of Linster from the legacy of the Boos von Waldeck. In 1772 he was in Merxheim among the requested will witnesses for Baron Philipp Henrich von und zu Stein-Kallenfels († 1778).

Peter Immanuel Dahn, Sobernheimensis matriculated at the University of Jena in 1753 and studied law. When he left Jena in May 1757, 42 “Friends and Country People” - students of theology, law and medicine - dedicated a printed ode to him . Among the signatories were Bernhard Georg Buhl from Kreuznach , a lawyer, and Johann Friedrich Schreiner (1737–1791) from Allenbach , later pastor in Hennweiler , from the county of Falkenstein Johann Andreas Böhmer from Framersheim , later pastor in the Palatinate, from the Electoral Palatinate of Sponheim , as well as from the Duchy of Pfalz-Zweibrücken Johann Friedrich Gervinus (* around 1735, † 1826) from Zweibrücken , later court master of Karl August von Hardenberg , then Prussian envoy, Bernhard Ludwig Klick from Bergzabern , later councilor of the Pfalz-Zweibrücken, and Karl Philipp Koch, later church conductor , notary and justice of the peace in Kusel . In 1761, Peter Emanuel Dahn, Palatino-Sobernheimensis , enrolled at the University of Heidelberg together with Philipp Henrich Dahn - probably his brother .

After completing his studies, Peter Emmanuel Dahn joined the  Chur-Palatinate clerical administration in Heidelberg as a renovator . His job in the property administration was to renew long-term leases at regular intervals or when the tenants change (" renovation ") so that the legal relationships remained secure over longer periods of time. In addition, the renovator, who was mainly used in the field, also worked as a surveyor and property developer.

Dahn was in particular commissioned with the renovation of the goods and slopes of the former Disibodenberg monastery near Odernheim am Glan in the Oberamt Kreuznach , located in the Electoral Palatinate area . As early as 1570, the Electoral Palatinate had moved in the Disibodenberger Höfe in Sobernheim and Kreuznach, which were located on its territory . Through the " Seltz - and Hagenbacher exchange" of 1768 between the Electoral Palatinate and Pfalz-Zweibrücken, the ruins of the former Disibodenberg monastery itself came to the Electoral Palatinate along with some other areas; however, the spiritual differences of the former monastery on the Pfalz-Zweibrücken territory were expressly excluded from the transfer. The Schaffnerei of the former monasteries of Kumbd bei Simmern , St. Marienpfort bei Waldböckelheim and Ravengiersburg were co-managed by the Disibodenberg winery in Kreuznach . In some cases, Dahn also worked for other works such as the St. Katharinen monastery in Oppenheim or St. Peter in Kreuznach.

Dahn's predecessor as a renovator for the Disibodenberger Kellerei area was Ludwig Conrad Gruber († 1785), who became oeconomus and provisional fisci of the University of Heidelberg around 1765 . Peter Immanuel Dahn is mentioned in a document as a renovator between 1764 and 1802. After the annexation of the left bank of the Rhine by the First French Republic , the Disibodenberg was declared national property in 1797.

There is evidence of renovations by Peter Emmanuel Dahn in Bockenau (1765), in the Münchwald between Bockenau and Auen (1765), in Lonsheim (1766), on the Münchwiese in Weinsheim (after 1766), in Monzingen (1782, 1802), to the Count of Bretzenheim Boßeler Wieß in the Sponheim monastery district between Sponheim , Braunweiler and Mandel (1788), to the Hinterwald between the Kreuznacher Saline Thedorshalle and Münster am Stein or to Heimel -Wiese in the Waldböckelheim and Nussbaumer districts (1789).

When, after a near flood, a newly created field in the Mittelsten Brückes near the municipal Pfingstweide ( Pfingstwiese ), which adjoined 20 acres of inheritance of the Disibodenberger cellar, was auctioned off by the Kreuznach city council as an increase in land, Dahn led a lawsuit against the inheritance Christian Prinz from around 1774, a council relative in Kreuznach, and made site plans. The disputed border through the Herrenwald ( Heer-Wald ) between “Uden Capplen” and Sien - Hoppstädten was made by Dahn in 1776 “according to older Gräntz descriptions, visible mills and messages from old people”.

To protect the fields and crops from flooding to Dahn continued to implement measures of river engineering as the reclamation of so-called Wall streams (quickly to surge the streams) a.

"Mr. Renov. Dhan ”was one of the subscribers to the first collection of poems by Isaak Maus , the“ farmer in Badenheim ” in Kreuznach in 1786 . Philippus Julius Dahn Crucenacensis (* around 1770), who matriculated in Heidelberg in 1788, married since 1796 to Anna Elisabetha Kuss from Weinsheim, was a son of Peter Immanuel Dahn.

The Oberamts renovator in the Oberamt Kreuznach Dahn had the Kreuznacher Mühlentor (at the end of today's Mühlenstrasse ) built on the site of the collapsed Kilianstor in 1791/92 , which was laid down in 1877.

General description of the Churpfälzisches OberAmts Creuznach

In 1772, Peter Immanuel Dahn wrote a manuscript of a general description of the Electoral Palatinate Oberamt Kreuznach , which contains numerous information on the topography, the political and religious structure and history, the current and previous building stock or the economic and social structure of the region. By decree of January 16, 1772, the Upper Palatinate authorities were "graciously given up" to submit official descriptions. A description of the office was also made in the neighboring Baden-Sponheim Oberamt Kirchberg in 1772.

The section Geographical Description of the City and District of Kreuznach, especially the manuscript, shows clear, literal parallels in structure and formulations to the Latin script Crucenacum Palatinum by Johann Heinrich Andreae (1728–1793), which appeared in partial volumes from 1780–1784 . Dahn's manuscript from 1772 was used by Andreae, who came from Kreuznach and was rector of the Reformed High School in Heidelberg from 1758 to 1789 .
