Philipp Karl von Hoheneck (born May 30, 1735 ; † May 16, 1808 in Vienna ) was cathedral cantor in Mainz and electoral privy councilor .

Origin and family

He came from the Palatinate noble family of the barons of Hoheneck with their ancestral castle Hohenecken near Kaiserslautern . The ancestor of the family was the Lauterer Reichsschultheiß Reinhard I de Lutra († 1218), whose son Landolf von Hoheneck († 1247) officiated as Bishop of Worms .

Philipp Karl von Hoheneck was born as the child of Damian Anton von Hoheneck, Kurmainzer Oberamtmann in Miltenberg , and his wife Maria Antonetta von Wiltberg. His sister Maria Amalia (1736-1807) had in 1757 the count and kurbayerischen or Kurmainzer Chamberlain Joseph Dominik Fugger to Kirchheim married. Both uncle (brother of the father) was the Mainz cathedral dean Johann Franz Jakob Anton von Hoheneck (1686–1758).

Live and act

Family coat of arms

Baron von Hoheneck entered the clergy. On July 4, 1742, he was accepted as canon in Mainz, he became cathedral capitular on September 7, 1760, and on February 1, 1766 received the preamble of the former canon Philipp Karl Friedrich Specht von Bubenheim . On November 3, 1774, Philipp Karl von Hoheneck was promoted to Mainz cathedral cantor , and he also owned canonicals at the Worms cathedral monastery and at the monasteries of St. Alban before Mainz and St. Ferrutius zu Bleidenstadt . Under Archbishop Friedrich Karl Joseph von Erthal he was a bailiff in Mombach and in 1787 also worked as a secret council in Frankfurt am Main . In 1806 he was in the service of Erthals only on the right bank of the Rhine, in the Principality of Aschaffenburg , ruling successor Karl Theodor von Dalberg . He was also the archbishop chamberlain .

Philipp Karl von Hoheneck was depicted at least twice in oil portraits. One portrait was painted by Anton Wilhelm Tischbein (1730–1804), the other by the Mainz court painter Georg Anton Abraham Urlaub (1744–1788).

The baron died on May 16, 1808 in Vienna , childless, as the last male offspring of his family. By an inheritance decree of 1806, the Hoheneck family estates, the name of Hoheneck and the corresponding coat of arms fell to the descendants of his sister Amalia Maria Countess von Fugger zu Kirchheim when he died. They combined both family coats of arms, called themselves von Fugger-Hoheneck and von Fugger-Kirchheim-Hoheneck from 1808 and had this legal act entered in the Bavarian nobility register.
