Gottlob Burchard Genzmer

Gottlob Burchard Genzmer (8 November 1716 – 14 April 1771) was a German Lutheran theologian, tutor and naturalist, born in Hohen-Lübbichow (now Cedynia) and dying in Stargard.

His pupils included the sisters Christiane and Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz and he was a friend of the art historian Johann Joachim Winckelmann.

Genzmer is known for his detailed damage surveys of the June 29, 1764 violent tornado which impacted Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

His damage surveys ultimately led to the European Severe Storms Laboratory rating the first and only T11 tornado on the TORRO scale.
