history

The genealogically confirmed common ancestor of all of today's von Raumer, Johann Raumer, († 1590), who was married to Ursula Peisser from Eger († 1617), is documented as one of the first in Eschenbach in the Upper Palatinate . He was employed in the district court of Auerbach in the Upper Palatinate and was employed as captain of the country militias. A daughter and two sons of him are known, the first son, Peter, settling in Pressath . Peter in turn had a son named Ludwig, who was forced to return from the Evangelical-Lutheran to the Catholic faith as part of the Counter-Reformation and who then decided to live as a Dominican monk. Johann Raumer's second son, Friedrich († March 23, 1666), married to Anna Höller († February 23, 1658), stayed as a tanner in Eschenbach, whereas their only son, Georg Raumer, due to the turmoil of the Thirty Years' War and the ensuing war Forced conversion moved from Bavaria to Dessau in 1630 , where she became court preacher and superintendent as well as the consistorial councilor . With him, the line that still exists today continues, of which numerous members have repeatedly held important positions, especially in science , politics and military service . From the early 19th century, a branch of the family, the geologist Karl Georg von Raumer, moved back to Bavaria and settled in the Erlangen area, where the family is known to this day.

Friedrich Amadeus Gottlieb von Raumer , son of the court preacher mentioned, was given the imperial and hereditary-Austrian nobility by Emperor Leopold I on January 18, 1693. This was also done a few years later on September 15, 1708 by Emperor Joseph I at Raumer's nephew and adoptive son Johann Georg von Raumer , who had become an orphan at the age of only five and was accepted by his single and childless uncle.

In addition, individual members of the family were honored with high honors, including in four cases with the Order Pour le Mérite and the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany in high terms, but also as honorary citizens of Erlangen or as namesake of streets in the cities of Dessau, Erlangen, Berlin, Dinkelsbühl , Essen , Cologne , and Ragow (Mittenwalde) as well as a school in Dinkelsbühl.

Part of the von Raumer's estate is now known as the “Raumer Archive” and is part of the Gerlach Archive at the Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg .
