Hans Christoff von Königsmarck






Hans Christoff von Königsmarck by Matthaeus Merian the Younger


Count Hans Christoff von Königsmarck, of Tjust (4 March 1600 – 8 March 1663), son of Conrad von Königsmarck and Beatrix von Blumenthal, was a Swedish-German soldier who commanded Sweden's legendary flying column, a force which played a key role in Gustavus Adolphus' strategy.


He was born in Kötzlin,[1]Altmark. He was appointed major general in 1640, governor general of Bremen-Verden in 1645, Privy Councilor in 1651 and field marshal in 1655. He is best known for the unsuccessful battle of Prague between 25 June and 1 November 1648 which was cut short when the Thirty Years' War ended.


In 1655 Königsmarck erected a castle in Lieth and named it after his wife Agathe von Leesten. The name of the castle, Agathenburg, also became the toponym of the village Lieth. Their children were:



  • Otto Wilhelm von Königsmarck

  • Conrad or Kurt Christoph von Königsmarck, whose children were:

    • Karl Johann von Königsmarck


    • Maria Aurora von Königsmarck.[2]

    • Amalia Wilhelmina von Königsmarck

    • Philip Christoph von Königsmarck



  • Beata Elisabet von Königsmarck


He died, aged 63, in Stockholm.
