biography

Eberhard Gildemeister was born on July 19, 1897 as the fourth son of the architect Eduard Gildemeister and Agnes Helene Auguste. Did not give birth. In 1915 he graduated from high school and then did voluntary military service until 1918.

After military service, he studied architecture at the Technical University of Darmstadt , which he successfully completed as a graduate engineer. This course strongly influenced his artistic development. In 1926 he began his professional activity as an architect with Lothar Gürtler in Osnabrück and in the following year moved to the office of the renowned Bremen architect Rudolf Jacobs .

After a competition for the Bremen Trade Union House, in which he finished with third prize, he and his brother Hermann Gildemeister won the second prize in 1928 in the competition for the new administration building of Nordwolle on Contrescarpe in Bremen. Based on their plans, the building was realized from 1928 to 1931. After the bankruptcy of Nordwolle, it became the property of the German Reich , was named Haus des Reichs and has been the seat of the Senator for Finance since 1945.

After the prestigious order for the Nordwolle administration, Eberhard Gildemeister and his brother Hermann ran a joint architecture office. However, this professional community broke up in 1934 when Hermann Gildemeister entered the civil service as head of the Bremen Building Department.

The numerous residential buildings from 1932 to 1939 were mostly in a beautiful landscape and were closely adapted to the needs of the clients. Gildemeister not only built in Bremen, but also in Oldenburg and Wilhelmshaven . Eberhard Gildemeister had been married to Silvia Leist since 1934, with whom he had a daughter born in 1935 and a son born in 1937. In the same year he was commissioned to build a factory housing estate for the Rolandmühle , which today is one of the best examples of social housing in Bremen. In 1939 Gildemeister received the order to build a new harbor house for the Bremer Lagerhaus-Gesellschaft, but the Second World War prevented it from being carried out.

During the war, Eduard Gildemeister was drafted into the military and worked there as the head of a construction company. However, he was released after two years due to illness. From then on he lived in Röhn and Vogelsberg and was only able to continue the profession of architect after an operation in 1949. Since 1950 he again ran his own office in Bremen. In that year he also built his own house with an integrated studio at Lehnhof 7 in Bremen-St. Magnus, in which he did not live long. In the years that followed, numerous residential buildings were built for the Lehnhofsiedlung, various residential buildings, a total of six churches, the new building of the Sparkasse on the market square and the furnishing of the passenger ship of the North German Lloyd "TS Bremen".

Eberhard Gildemeister died on June 3, 1978 and was buried in the Bremen-Riensberg cemetery.

Many of Gildemeister's buildings are now listed .

In 2003, the Eberhard-Gildemeister-Weg in Bremen- Walle was named after him.
