Life

Hickel was born in 1848 to Guillaume (Wilhelm) Hickel and his wife Marie in Bischweiler in Alsace. He attended elementary school, learned to be a carpenter and then toured Switzerland and France. He worked in Paris for two years , was drafted into the Mobile Guard in Strasbourg in 1870 and, after the city surrendered, interned as a prisoner of war in Rastatt . He later ran a grocery store in Mulhouse.

Charles Hickel was, together with Jean Martin, founding chairman of the workers' electoral association for Mühlhausen and the surrounding area, which was founded by 21 Social Democrats on December 10, 1889 and approved by the district president on April 12, 1890. In the election campaign before the Reichstag elections in 1890 , Hickel did not identify himself directly as a social democrat (the Socialist Law was formally in force until September 30, 1890), but described himself as a "workers candidate of the workers' party".

From 1890 to 1893 he was a member of the German Reichstag for the constituency Reichsland Elsaß-Lothringen 2 ( Mulhouse ) and the SAPD .
