Lorenz Schwietz (25 July 1850 – May 1925, Breslau) was Royal Prussian executioner ((ドイツ語:Scharfrichter)) from 21 June 1900 to 29 January 1914.〔Blazek (2010).〕 Responsible for carrying out capital punishment in the Prussian provinces,〔Førde (2008).〕 he executed a total of 120〔 to 123 people, primarily by beheading with an axe, but also with guillotines.〔Appelius (2010).〕 ==Early life== Lorenz Schwietz was born in Groß Döbern (now Dobrzeń Wielki), Oppeln county, Prussian province of Silesia.〔 In his early years, he worked as a butcher, first in Breslau (now Wroclaw), where he received the respective education, later in Ratibor (now Racibórz, both in Silesia), before he returned to Breslau to open a butchery.〔 Since 1886, he ran a knacker's yard in Breslau, and in addition worked as an assistant of Royal Prussian executioner Julius Krautz.〔Evans (1996), p. 385.〕 Krautz, a knacker from Charlottenburg,〔Evans (1996), p. 376.〕 resigned from the executioner's office after he had slain his assistant Gummich in April 1889〔 in a pub brawl, resulting from a dispute about the legitimacy of Krautz's punishments for Gummich's drunkenness at work.〔 Schwietz was considered to take over an executioner's office by the Breslau state procecutor, but since Schwietz had a criminal record, he was rejected.〔 Executions in Prussia were then carried out by members of the Reindel family, a „dynasty of executioners“.〔Evans (1996), p. 672.〕 Friedrich Reindel retired in 1898,〔 and Wilhelm Reindel had to resign in 1901 when, after continuous reports about his drunkenness and „feeble-minded“ appearance at work, he was unable to cut off a victim's head with the first blow of his axe.〔
