Ernst Bösser studied architecture under Georg Gottlob Ungewitter at the secondary commercial school in Kassel until 1857 . The follower of Conrad Wilhelm Hase moved to Hanover after his studies, where he initially worked in Edwin Oppler 's architectural office . In 1864, in what was then the royal seat of the Kingdom of Hanover , Bösser started his own business as an architect.

For several years in a row, Bösser participated in the construction of Wernigerode Castle and the grammar school in Wernigerode , the Count's Protestant grammar school .

After the proclamation of the German Empire , Bösser passed his master builder exam in Berlin in 1872 . As a result, he initially entered the state service in Hanau and worked as a state building inspector in Kassel and as a building officer.
