Biography
Christian Friedrich Baz (28 October 1762 â 26 May 1808) was a German legal scholar, a representative at the Duchy of Württemberg's state convention or 'Landtag' and from 1796 to 1805 mayor of Ludwigsburg. Born in Stuttgart, he supported the Age of Enlightenment and was open to French Revolutionary ideals, backing the individual freedom and rights of Württemberg's citizens. He was one of the landtag's reformers and soon became a radical and an opponent of Grand Duke Frederick. He was arrested twice and spent almost two years imprisoned in the Hohenasperg, Schloss Solitude in Stuttgart and another fortress in Bohemia. He died in 1808 in Waiblingen.
