from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Phillipp von Mandell (born September 21, 1741 in Regensburg ; † July 11, 1828 in Hornaing near Marchiennes ; born Phillipp Wilhelm Justus von Mandell ) was court marshal and mayor of old Saarbrücken (1800-1804).

Life

Phillipp was born the son of Baron Jakob Justus von Mandell, his mother was Charlotte Wilhelmine nee. von Gößnitz (1715–1785). He married Maria Josepha Le Herdy, from the marriage the two children Louis Eugen (* 1789) and Luise Franziska Justine (* 1790) emerged. In 1787 he bought the rule of Dillingen , which he sold on to Prince Ludwig von Nassau-Saarbrücken two years later, on January 22, 1789 . The reason for the sale is said to have been disputes with the local hut owners. The prince was later to transfer this rule to his second (civil) wife Katharina Kest (known as “the Fechingen goose retreat ”). After finishing his military and political career, von Mandell moved to Valenciennes .

Military career

The Baron Phillipp von Mandell was from 1779–1787 Lieutenant Colonel in the Cavalry Regiment of the Princes of Nassau-Saarbrücken . In 1790 he was transferred to the Chasseurs de Flandre in Sarreguemines as Lieutenant-Colonel . Even before the troops of the French revolutionary army moved into Saarbrücken in 1793, von Mandell fled to Koblenz as early as 1791 and joined the emigrant army there. As a princely official, he thus escaped imprisonment and deportation.

Public offices

Shortly after his return in 1797, at the end of the First Coalition War , Saarbrücken became a canton municipality under French administration in the Département de la Sarre, established in 1798 . On November 1, 1800 was carried out by Mandells introduction as mayor ( mayor ) of Saarbrücken. He held this office until December 2, 1804.
