Portrait of Ernst Buresch

Ernst Friedrich Buresch (* 29. August 1817 in Holle at Derneburg; † 6. April 1892 in Hannover ) was a German engineer and railroad - building officer .

Life

The son of the riding forester Johann Friedrich August Buresch attended high school and, like his younger brother Friedrich , studied at the Polytechnic School in Hanover . At the beginning of 1842 he entered the service of the Railway Commission , the predecessor organization of the Royal Hanover State Railways, which was under construction, and in the following years played a major role in the construction of the routes from Hanover to Braunschweig , Minden and Bremen . In 1856 he became operations director. In 1864 he took a three-year leave of absence from the Hanoverian civil service and, through the mediation of the Oldenburg construction director Otto Lasius , joined the Oldenburg railway construction as a senior construction engineer on October 1st . After the opening of the Bremen – Oldenburg railway line , Buresch's vacation, which had already expired on October 1, 1867, was extended for a further two years and, after the end of this, for an indefinite period. On February 3, 1870, he received the requested release from the now Prussian civil service and finally entered the Grand Ducal Oldenburg State Railways and thus also the Oldenburg civil service. Buresch was considered to be the creator of the Oldenburg main railway network, as the lines of the railways and the architecture of the buildings were largely shaped by him. In addition to the railway line from Oldenburg to Bremen, those to Wilhelmshaven 1867, Leer 1869, Sande-Jever 1871, Hude-Brake-Nordenham 1873–75, Osnabrück 1875/76 and Ihrhove Neuschanz 1876 were built under his leadership. In collaboration with the architects Conrad Wilhelm Hase from Hanover and Jansen from Oldenburg, the first reception building of the Oldenburg main station was built in 1877/78 .

On October 13, 1882, Buresch resigned from the Oldenburg civil service as a secret senior building officer and became director of the Eckernförde-Flensburger railway company in Kiel . A few years before his death he took his retirement home in Hanover.

family

The Villa Buresch , built between 1859 and 1860 and now a listed building , at Von-Alten-Allee 6 in Linden-Mitte

Buresch married Sophie Therese Egestorff (* August 6, 1830 in Linden ; † March 4, 1855 ibid), a daughter of Georg Egestorff . Her son Karl (born August 28, 1862) fell ill with typhus when he was five years old . Through his wife and her sister Luise , Buresch was also related to her husband, the Linden lawyer, Reichstag member and Senator Wilhelm Laporte . After the death of his wife, he married Anna Maria Kei. The two marriages produced a total of seven children.

Between 1859 and 1860, Buresch's brother Friedrich had the Villa Buresch, named after him, built in what is now the Hanover district of Linden-Mitte at Von-Alten-Allee 6 , where he then lived with his family and that of his brother.
