Jean-Jacques Willmar

Jean -Jacques Madeleine Willmar ( born March 6, 1792 in Luxembourg, † November 26, 1866 in Luxembourg ) was a Luxembourgian politician.

Jean -Jacques Willmar was the son of the former governor of Luxembourg at the time of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands. In 1814 he received his diploma in law in Paris and settled as a lawyer in the city of Luxembourg. In 1824 he was appointed as a judge.

Between 1830 and 1839, after the Belgian Revolution, he was a follower of the Dutch King and Grand Duke of Luxembourg Wilhelm I. In 1840 he was appointed Attorney General. Between 1841 and 1848 he was a member of the Assemblée des États. After the outbreak of the revolution of March 1848 he was steward in Luxembourg Siebzehnerausschuss which to draft a constitution on behalf of the German Confederation in March. From May 31 1848 to January 2, 1849 he represented Luxembourg as the non-attached Members in the Frankfurt National Assembly.

On December 2, 1848 Willmar was appointed Prime Minister and Minister for External Relations, Justice, Culture and Education. His government, however, was burdened by tensions with the German Reich, as the Finance Minister Norbert Metz, who took great influence on foreign policy, pro- Belgian and was set against the membership of Luxembourg in the German Confederation and the Zollverein. The relationship with the Netherlands were strained after King William II was deceased in 1849 and his successor William III. by his brother Henry of Orange -Nassau was represented. This called for a strictly conservative and restorative policy. On September 23, 1853, Heinrich was allowed to settle the government. His successor was Charles -Mathias Simons.
