About Johann Gottlob Nathusius
- Johann Gottlob Nathusius (April 30, 1760 – July 23, 1835) was a German industrialist. Nathusius was born in Baruth, and learned the trade of a merchant in Berlin, later joining the trading company Sengewald in Magdeburg.
- After the death of the company's owner he took over the business, which prospered under his management, particularly with the establishment of a tobacco factory (Richter & Nathusius) in 1787 together with his partner Richter; after the death of this partner and the partner's widow, he became its full owner.
- After the reestablishment of a royal tobacco monopoly, he became a royal factory manager; however under Frederick William III he again regained complete control.
- The decline in the economy under the Kingdom of Westphalia enabled him to purchase the Althaldensleben monastery and Schloss Hundisburg, and on these estates he developed a comprehensive set of industries, including breweries, flour mills, a sugar factory, a brickyard, a machinery production and a stoneware and porcelain factory. When Nathusius was 48, he married 18-year-old Luise Bremen. He died in Althaldensleben.
- A son of his, Hermann von Nathusius, was a noted animal breeder.
- Another child was the publisher Philipp von Nathusius.
