Christian August Hahnemann

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christian August Hahnemann (* around 1800 in Berlin ; † 1874 ibid.) Was a German architect and building contractor.

August Hahnemann was very likely the son of the royal court mason August Daniel Hahnemann, completed an apprenticeship as a mason and, before 1829, the master's examination in Berlin. He then worked in his father's construction company. This company was involved in the construction of the theater from 1819 to 1821, from 1821 to 1824 on the castle bridge , in 1821 on the guard house at the Kreuzberg monument and from 1829 to 1832 on the New Packhof . Also in 1849 at the laying of the foundation stone for the monument to Friedrich Wilhelm III. in the zoo. In 1833 Hahnemann took the master mason examination and then traveled through Germany and Italy. Further trips to Italy followed in 1843/44 and 1847/48. In 1848 he passed the private master builder examination and was appointed court master builder in 1852.
