from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ulrich von Heyden (born June 12, 1873 in Alexanderhof ; † April 22, 1963 in Preetz ) was a German politician, district administrator in the districts of Ueckermünde and Prenzlau and a member of the provincial parliament of the province of Brandenburg .

Life

Ulrich von Heyden was the son of the landowner Wichard von Heyden (1838–1917) and his wife, Countess Marie von Schwerin (1844–1918). After visiting the monastery Roßleben and another high school he studied at the University of Göttingen Law , where he in the Corps Saxonia was active.

In 1896 he was court trainee and in 1898 government trainee with the provincial government in Stettin . In 1902 he became a government assessor in Marienwerder in West Prussia . He worked as an unskilled worker in the district offices of Sorau , Prenzlau and Marienwerder. From 1907 he temporarily took over the district office in Ueckermünde and in the following year became district administrator of the district of Ueckermünde.

In 1917 he worked for a short time in Berlin for the State Commissioner for People's Nutrition. In the middle of the following year he received the post of district administrator in Prenzlau, again initially temporarily, and moved to Alexanderhof. In 1920 he said goodbye because as a monarchist he did not want to be sworn in to the republican government. He became a member of the county committee and the provincial council . He was chairman of the district cooperative and the cattle recycling cooperative. He was also a member of the Order of St. John .

Ulrich's grandmother Athalie von Heyden née Fränkel, the wife of Woldemar von Heyden , came from a family that had converted from Jewish to Catholicism . With the rise of National Socialism , his origin became the basis of numerous hostilities. After the takeover of power he was forced by the National Socialists to give up his offices and memberships.

In 1945 he was expropriated as part of the land reform in the Soviet occupation zone and initially imprisoned in Prenzlau prison together with his wife Irmgard and daughter-in-law Elisabeth. After his release, he was temporarily given a new settler position in Wittenhof, but was then expelled from the Prenzlau district as a former landowner in 1947. He went with his wife to Preetz in Schleswig-Holstein , where their son Botho von Heyden had a permit for his parents to move into.
