Johanne Justine Segedin, née Renner (1763-1856), known as "Gustel von Blasewitz", was a Blasewitz benefactress. As a young woman, she worked on her parents' gift estate in Blasewitz - later Schillergarten - which passed to the three Segedin siblings after their mother's death. Between 1785 and 1787, Friedrich Schiller was a guest at the tavern a few times and was obviously quite impressed by the young Johanne Justine Segedin. At that time, Schiller was organizing theatrical performances with Theodor Körner, Nicolaus Naumann, and others, in which he wished her to participate, but was rebuffed by her. Schiller then threatened to take her to the theater after all and immortalized her in his trilogy of dramas "Wallenstein," which he wrote more than ten years after his Dresden period in Weimar. In it, Johanne Justine Segedin has the role of the sutler, which is said to have infuriated her greatly. The exclamation of a hunter in "Wallenstein" is well known: "What? the lightning! That's the Gustel from Blasewitz!", which later gave rise to the saying "Potz Blitz! That is yes the Gustel from Blasewitz!" became.
