Friedrich Ludwig Schrumpf

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich Ludwig Schrumpf (born August 15, 1765 in Assweiler / Asswiller , † April 2, 1844 in Biebrich am Rhein ) was a German architect and Nassau construction clerk . He was a drawing teacher in Herborn before he became ducal court architect of Nassau and finally court building director . Schrumpf was a supporter of Palladianism , an architectural style that regained importance in classicism around 1800. He designed numerous buildings in the Duchy of Nassau, especially in the Weilburg and Wiesbaden residences .

Works

His most famous buildings include the Receptur (started in 1816, only moved in 1829 after vacancy) and the Palais von Dungern (1822) in Weilburg, the Platte hunting lodge near Wiesbaden (1823-1826), as well as the previous building of the Bonifatius Church in Wiesbaden (built from 1828 , Collapsed in 1831). Other buildings are the Protestant churches in Oberneisen (1816–1819) and Driedorf (1821–1827). For the Evangelical Parish Church in Marienberg , the previous building of which burned down in 1813, Schrumpf designed a new building in 1816 with an octagonal nave without a tower. A second draft was for a rectangular ship, also without a tower. In 1819 a revised, enlarged form of the second design with a tower was finally carried out by Eberhard Philipp Wolff .
