Albert Ludorff
Albert Ludorff (* 1848 in Wetzlar ; † 1915 in Münster ) was a German architect and monument conservator .
As a government master builder in the Prussian state building administration, he was commissioned in 1888 to create the book series Architectural and Art Monuments of Westphalia , which was published by the Provincial Association of the Province of Westphalia . Ludorff was appointed provincial curator in the province of Westphalia in 1892. In 1902 and 1904 Ludorff was on the board of directors of the art history exhibition in the Kunstpalast Düsseldorf .
Ludorff was since 1874 a member of the Catholic Reading Association (now KStV Askania-Burgundia ) Berlin and since 1876 the Frankonia-Strasbourg in the KV .
In 2000 his grave was “rediscovered” in the central cemetery in Münster . Due to the barely legible inscription on the tombstone and the poor maintenance of the greenery, the grave site received no attention. The grave was only restored after research by the Westphalian Office for the Preservation of Monuments .
