Franz Schebek
Franz Schebek , Czech František Šebek (born April 15, 1814 in Wlaschim , Bohemia ; † March 6, 1862 in Vienna ) was a Bohemian builder, city architect of Vienna and member of the Imperial Council of the Old Czech Party .
Life
Franz Schebek was the son of a gardener for the princes Auersperg . He completed a technical preparatory course in Prague from 1828 to 1831 , but was then unable to attend a technical college for financial reasons. Instead he did an apprenticeship as a bricklayer and after a study trip through Germany and Italy came to Vienna, where he settled.
From 1835 to 1843 he worked for master builder Anton Hoppe , where he became second foreman after just a few weeks. Then he worked for Leopold Mayr from 1843–1844 . He then passed the master builder examination and received the master builder license; at the same time he became a citizen of Vienna. From 1855 to 1862 he also headed his own building school. In 1860 he left the management of his construction company to Josef Hlávka , who worked for him .
As a result, Schebek was politically active. In 1861 he was elected to the Vienna City Council and the Bohemian Landtag . From there he came to the newly created Austrian Reichsrat, where he supported the old Czech party František Ladislav Rieger . However, he fell ill with tuberculosis and died in 1862. He was buried in the Währinger cemetery .
plant
Franz Schebek was one of the leading builders in Vienna during the period of late classicism and early historicism. Several public construction projects were assigned to him for practical implementation, which were under the supervision of the imperial building officials. In his convictions he represented the ideals of a romantic popular movement, be it politically or through the support of traditional handicrafts.
