August Brändle

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich August Brändle (born November 24, 1881 in Dornstetten , † September 10, 1931 in Fellbach ) was a German politician.

Life

At the age of 27 he succeeded Ernst Albert Friz Schultheiss von Fellbach in early 1908 .

During the First World War he traveled several times to the front to join Fellbach units. He later protested in the Fellbacher Tagblatt against the Peace Treaty of Versailles and in particular the Young Plan . Three months later, a meeting of the Hitler Youth Fellbach against the Young Plan, which he had approved, was announced.

He was a member of the Christian Association of Young People and, from 1919, chairman of the Evangelical Association, which was founded after the Association for Christian Child Care and the Nursing Association were merged.

He remained mayor of Fellbach until his death in September 1931. He was buried in the old cemetery. During his tenure, he drove the planning of the Kleinfeldfriedhof, which was inaugurated in 1933 as a replacement for the old cemetery. In 1928 he became an honorary citizen of Fellbach.

Aftermath

After the death of August Brändle's widow, the city of Fellbach erected a building from 1972 to 1974 on a property that Brändle had acquired in 1909 from the deceased privateer Albert van Vloten, which now houses the Schultheiss-Brändle kindergarten . The Brändle family used the building as a residential building until the 1960s. At the widow's request, the city of Fellbach built kindergartens and apartments there. For this purpose, the building at Lindenstrasse 17 was torn down down to the basement; This is now used under the name “Mörike-Keller” as the city's event and assembly room.

August-Brändle-Straße in Fellbach is named after August Brändle.
