Albrecht Heinrich Carl Conradi

Albrecht Heinrich Carl Conradi , also Counradi or Counrady (* 1698 or 1699 ; † July 4, 1774 in Braunschweig ) was a German building manager and cartographer .

Life

"Plan of the City of Braunschweig" (created around 1755). Well visible, the Oker river flowing through and around the city .

Excerpt from the city map from around 1755. Among other things, you can see: The first Braunschweig Castle (“A”) on Bohlweg and the Magnikirche (“P”), as well as the streets “in den Öhl-Schlägern” and “Friesen Straße” as well as the today's " Ackerhof ", which was then still called "auf dem Schilde".

For forty years, from 1733 to 1773, Conradi worked as a building manager in Braunschweig. During this time he worked under the famous baroque - architects Hermann Korb , Martin Peltier de Belfort , Georg Christoph Sturm and Carl Christoph Wilhelm Fleischer . From 1747 to 1749 Conradi worked as a teacher for civil and military architecture at the Collegium Carolinum , the forerunner of the Technical University of Braunschweig , founded two years earlier .

In 1744 Conradi created a map of the city of Braunschweig with the military roads up to the Braunschweiger Landwehr . Around 1755 he created the first large edition city map of Braunschweig.

Conradi's structural design was traditional and reserved. Buildings designed by him in Braunschweig, such as the semi-detached Eiermarkt 3/4 or the palace-like sack cellar built between 1754 and 1757 instead of the Sackrathaus which was demolished in 1739 are no longer preserved today.
