Live and act

Latzel was the son of the Jägerndorfer builder Karl Latzel and his wife Mathilda, née Göbel.

He worked almost exclusively in his hometown, for which he created public buildings, factory buildings, factory owners' villas and residential buildings. His designs include neo-renaissance, neo-baroque and art nouveau buildings.

The later master builder Franz Blasch (1878–1915) worked as a draftsman for Latzel at the beginning of his professional career from 1897.
