Life
Bielmann was Catholic and from Freiburg , Treyvaux and Bonnefontaine . His parents were François Bielmann, a wealthy farmer, and Marie-Thérèse nee. Geinoz, from Bulle . He married Marie-Madeleine Corminboeuf. Her son, the lawyer Edouard Bielmann, was the leader of the free-spirited opposition to the government of "guided democracy" of Georges Python .
After studying law he worked as a tutor in Russian Poland . After returning to Freiburg , he became a state collector and then worked as a geometer .
Bielmann was a radical councilor from 1838 to 1847 and an opponent of the Sonderbund . Under the radical regime he regained his seat on the Grand Council and exercised his mandate from 1847 to 1856. In 1848 he passionately defended the preservation of the Dompierre district, which did not prevent him from working from the same year until 1850 as the governor of the new Broye district .
Bielmann was elected to the Council of State on October 6, 1850 to succeed Jean-Joseph Broye . After Pierre Comte-Vaudeaux, elected in the fourth ballot, had rejected his election, Bielmann was elected in the fifth ballot with 38 of 68 votes. He headed the building management (1850–1857) and implemented the road law of 1849. In the Grand Council he was responsible for the law of May 10, 1852, which made it possible to contain natural disasters caused by rivers after he had concluded an agreement with the Vaudois countries on the correction of the Broye that would bring benefits to the two cantons .
With Julien Schaller , Bielmann defended the canton's railway interests by first advocating the Bern – Friborg – Payerne-Yverdon – Lausanne (1855) and then the Bern – Friborg – Romont – Lausanne (1856) route.
After his resignation from the State Council in June 1857, Bielmann worked again as a geometer. He died on June 4, 1865 at the age of 64.
