Life

Philipp Sattler was a son of Zimprecht Sattler, syndic of the city of Kempten , his mother Barbara Lützelmann came from an aristocratic family from Basel . From 1610 he studied at the University of Tübingen . After three years he went traveling.

In Prague in 1618 he joined the body regiment of Count Heinrich Matthias von Thurn as a rider under Captain Ehrenfried von Berbisdorf and already showed diplomatic skills. In 1620 he became secretary to the young Count Franz Bernhard von Thurn. After the defeat in the Battle of White Mountain , he saved the count and his family to Silesia . In 1624 he entered the service of the Swedish King Gustav II Adolf , who used him in the diplomatic service. For the successful negotiations for the handover of Pillau to the Swedes, he received the Salnecke estate near Uppsala in 1626 .

During the siege of Stralsund in 1628 he was Sweden's representative in the city. He concluded the alliance treaty between Stralsund and Sweden. In 1629 he visited the Protestant circles in Germany, France, the Netherlands and Switzerland on a diplomatic mission. In 1630 he reported on his negotiations in Stockholm. After the occupation of Pomerania by the Swedes, he received the Torgelow office as a pledge for his services .

In 1633 he took over the equestrian regiment of the sick Wilhelm von Goldstein as a colonel. Mainly, however, he pursued his diplomatic obligations. He accompanied Axel Oxenstierna to the Heilbronn Convention and to the Consilium formatum in Frankfurt / Main . He could therefore look after his regiment little. It was incorporated into the Taupadel Riding Corps in July 1633 on the orders of Duke Bernhard of Saxe-Weimar . Soon after the battle of Nördlingen , in which he had participated with his regiment, this was disbanded. The duke appointed him to the war council of the Frankish army.

In 1636 he became a war council under Field Marshal Hermann Wrangel in Pomerania. In 1639 he was called to Sweden by Queen Christina , who raised him to the Swedish nobility in 1640. He died in Stockholm in 1641 after a brief illness.
