Former Central Ministerial Building in Munich

Fritz Gablonsky (born July 26, 1876 in Munich ; † 1971 ; actually: Friedrich Gablonsky ) was a German architect , construction officer and university professor .

Life

Gablonsky was a member of the German Werkbund and worked as a senior councilor in the state building administration in Munich. In 1938 he was appointed to a chair in the architecture department at the Technical University of Munich , where the National Socialist architect was to replace the modernist Adolf Abel . Gablonsky was involved in numerous new building plans for the Nazi regime .

In 1931 he built for the fraternity Bavaria the Kaulbachvilla around and walked the artist's studio in a ballroom at. The reconstruction for Nazi Gauleiter Adolf Wagner six years later was also the responsibility of Gablonsky. In the same year he also converted the Prinz-Carl-Palais into a guest house for the NSDAP , which was regularly visited by Benito Mussolini , among others . The newly created north facade of the building is based on the south facade designed by Fischer.

In 1934, as head of the design office of the Supreme Building Authority in the Ministry of the Interior, Gablonsky issued the building permit for the construction of the two temples of honor on Königsplatz , for him "architecturally and town-planning necessary as a space closure in the space between the Führerbau and the administrative building".

He later lived in Forst near Wessobrunn . Gablonsky's estate is kept in the Architecture Museum of the Technical University of Munich .
