Dietrich Gustav Johann Peter Franz Georg Maria von Reininghaus / 9.1.1918 – 18.5.1993
Dietrich was the elder son of Gustav II and Ilse von Reininghaus and was born in Munich. After the Second World War, he worked on the family farm Mauern, which he took over in 1955 after his marriage to Hildegard Schütz (*Teisendorf 27.10.1926 / † Fürstenfeldbruck 9.11.2019). His sons Hubertus and Albrecht were born in 1956 and 1959. He initially ran the “Saatzucht von Reininghaus” company founded by his mother, and later set up his own compound feed business. In 1957, he acquired German citizenship in addition to his Austrian citizenship. He preferred to spend his free time in the mountains and from the mid-1970s regularly undertook extensive tours through the Sahara.
