Franz von Schilcher

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Franz von Schilcher (born December 25, 1836 in Altötting ; † February 4, 1931 in Munich ), was a German lawyer, Bavarian civil servant, mountaineer and specialist author and co-founder of the Munich and Traunstein sections of the German Alpine Club (DAV).

Life

Franz Sales Emanuel Karl von Schilcher was the son of Max August von Schilcher - at that time a district judge in Altötting - and his wife Walburga (Wally), née Lackner. When the father was appointed cabinet secretary to King Ludwig I of Bavaria in 1838 , the family moved to the state capital. In 1854 Schilcher graduated from the Maximiliansgymnasium in Munich with, among others, Maximilian Beilhack and Karl August von Heigel . He then studied law at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich and then entered the Bavarian civil service. Initially appellate court advisor in Munich, he was appointed assessor in Traunstein in 1869. In 1876 he was appointed district judge, 1879 regional judge, and later higher regional judge in Munich. As the latter, he retired in 1902.

Schilcher was an enthusiastic mountaineer and especially the Berchtesgaden Alps. With Johann Punz and J. Schöttl he succeeded in 1885 the first ascent of the Kleiner Palfelhorn . In 1869 he was co-founder of the Munich section of the Alpine Club and at times its secretary. With Ferdinand Freiherr von Miller and Hermann Dingler he was finally made an honorary member. Also in 1869, together with the pharmacist Joseph Pauer, he was the initiator of the foundation of the Traunstein section of the association and its 1st chairman. The construction of the Watzmannhaus (1887) and the Höllentalangerhütte in the Wetterstein Mountains (1894) are also based on his suggestions. He was also a member of the General German Association (ADV) founded in 1891 .

On October 28, 1883, Schilcher married Luitgard Schmid in Munich. The children of this marriage were the son Max Ludwig Franz Karl (born November 24, 1884 in Munich) and the daughters Bertha Maria Walburga Anna Margaretha (born July 21, 1886 in Wemding) and Mathilde Maria Luise (born May 16, 1890 in Roßhaupten; married 1920 with the painter Bruno Goldschmitt ). The family belonged to the circle of friends of the painter Wilhelm Marc .
