Albin Zumpe

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Facade of the Dresden Stock Exchange

Albin Zumpe (born February 17, 1843 in Dresden , † after 1878; full name Ernst Fürchtegott Albin Zumpe ) was a German architect .

Life

Zumpe was the son of the master shoemaker Johann Gottlob Zumpe and his wife Friederike Dietze. In 1860 he was accepted into the subdivision of the building school at the Dresden Art Academy . From October 1, 1862, he worked in Hermann Nicolai's studio . From 1865 he lived and worked in Zwickau .

In 1869, the competition design for the construction of a new town hall in Dortmund , which was developed in the previous year and worked out together with the Dresden architect Otto Trobsch, was shown at the Dresden art exhibition. For his competition design submitted in 1869 for a new school building for the secondary school in Zwickau, he received 2nd prize.

The competition design for a stock exchange building in the style of the Italian Renaissance in Dresden, which was submitted in collaboration with the Chemnitz architect Guido Ehrig, was submitted in 1872 and received first prize and the contract for its execution. In 1873, the year construction began, Ehrig died and Zumpe carried out the construction alone. In this context, there is an occasional erroneous statement in the architectural history literature that Zumpe died in 1873. Zumpe wrote a final report on the stock exchange building in February 1876, which was published two months later in the Deutsche Bauzeitung .

In 1878 Zumpe married the merchant's daughter Marie Franziska Rosamunde Deter in Berlin.
