Wilhelm Dietrich Freiherr von Buddenbrock [ ˈbʊdn̩ˌbʁoːk ] (born March 15, 1672 in Tilsewischken near Ragnit in East Prussia, † March 28, 1757 in Breslau ) was a Prussian field marshal .

origin

He came from the old line of the Baltic Buddenbrocks . His father was the royal Polish lieutenant colonel Johann von Buddenbrock (* 1624; † November 3, 1677), heir to Cosacken, Beynunen , Drescowen, Schönjarken, Gurnen and Bialla , the mother was Elisabeth Sophia von Rappe , daughter of the royal Polish major Christoph von Black on Angerapp and granddaughter of the Prussian Chancellor of the same name Christoph von Rappe .

Life

After three years of university studies at the Albertina in Königsberg , Buddenbrock went to the army out of "belligerence" to fight against the Kingdom of France in the Netherlands as part of the Kurbrandenburg contingent in the Nine Years War . He fought in 1690 as an 18-year-old cornet in the "Regiment Anhalt on Horseback" in the battle of Fleurus . Later he took part in his now royal Prussian regiment in all battles of the War of the Spanish Succession and was commander of the regiment in the battle of Malplaquet in 1709. On July 18, 1724 Buddenbrock was appointed colonel of the regiment previously known as "Bredow on horseback" . It was now called "von Buddenbrock".

In 1729 he was accepted into the entourage of King Friedrich Wilhelm I , promoted to lieutenant general and received the Order of the Black Eagle (1739). He was a member of the tobacco college and also the king's partner at the death camp.

In the battle of Chotusitz in 1743 he earned the promotion to general of the cavalry together with the king's picture in diamonds, an official captaincy and a salary allowance. In the same year he married Beate Abigail von Siegroth, widow after Karl Gottlieb von Nostitz auf Laasan since 1741 . The second Silesian War brought him the field marshal's baton (March 19, 1745).

His eldest son died in the battle of Chotusitz, the younger son as lieutenant general and governor of the Berlin cadet corps Johann von Buddenbrock (1707–1781), who was seriously wounded in the battle of Hohenfriedberg , was like his father a career officer.

Buddenbrock died at the age of 85 as governor of Breslau . His body was buried in the church of Peterwitz .
