Georg Moesta

Georg Moesta was born on 12 June 1963 in Boppard, Rhineland-Palatinate. He completed his Abitur at the Kurfurst-Salentin-Gymnasium in Andernach in 1982 and studied law at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. He passed the first state law examination in 1988 and the second in 1991, both with distinction (Pradikat) before the Landesprufungsamt for lawyers in Rhineland-Palatinate.

From May 1991 Moesta was admitted as a Rechtsanwalt in Koblenz. Between 1993 and 2011 he was managing partner of Dr. Dornbach, Moesta & Partner. From 2012 he was managing partner of Martini Mogg Vogt, with sites in Koblenz, Bonn and Mainz. He advised on company law, wealth succession and M&A, and held Fachanwalt status for inheritance law and AGT certification as a testamentary executor. He was deputy chair of the advisory board of Gerolsteiner Brunnen GmbH & Co. KG and sat on the administrative boards of Sparkasse Koblenz and Kreissparkasse Mayen.

On 31 January 2019 the Landtag of Rhineland-Palatinate elected him an ordinary member of the Verfassungsgerichtshof with effect from 7 February 2019. The court's press release after his death said he served until the end despite serious illness and left lasting contributions to the court's work.

Moesta entered communal politics early. He sat on Plaidt's Ortsgemeinderat from 1984 to 2017, joined the Mayen-Koblenz Kreistag in 1989, and from 1994 chaired the CDU Kreistagsfraktion. He chaired the CDU Pellenz from 1989 to 2017 and served on the CDU Rhineland-Palatinate Landesvorstand from 2008 to 2012. Awards included the Johann Christian Eberle Medal (2004) and the Freiherr vom Stein-Plakette (2010).

He lived in Plaidt and was married to Landtag member Anette Moesta. They had a daughter (born 2003) and a son (born 2010).

Georg Moesta died on Tuesday 13 October 2026 at the age of 63 after a serious illness, according to the Verfassungsgerichtshof Rheinland-Pfalz, the Mayen-Koblenz district administration and regional press including Wochenspiegel and Rhein-Zeitung. The court expressed sympathy to his wife and two children. Funeral arrangements were not detailed in those first official statements.

Moesta is remembered as a Koblenz lawyer who combined commercial practice with decades of CDU local leadership and, from 2019, service on Rhineland-Palatinate's constitutional court. Colleagues stressed his expertise, conciliatory style and persistence through illness. His Freiherr vom Stein plaque marked communal political service at the highest state level for local engagement.
