Life

Born in the duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin at the time as the grandson of the ducal chief engineer Zacharias Johann Plener , "[...] who became famous for his floor plans of the Dömitz fortress made in 1762 ", Johann Friedrich Philipp Plener became one of three children of the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg, who was stationed in Dömitz - Major engineer Carl Friedrich Plener born in Schwerin .

As early as 1814 and still as a teenager, Friedrich Plener worked under the dikemaster Anton Heinrich Dammert in the Gartow office and on the Upper Elbe .

In the years 1820 and 1821 Plener studied at the Georg August University in Göttingen . He then worked on the Ems-Hase Canal until 1825 , before he was used to improve the dikes in East Frisia , which had been destroyed by the great storm surge in 1825 . He was also employed there in the subsequent improvement of the dikes.

For a time, Friedrich Plener was also involved in the construction of the Royal Hanover State Railroad Network, which - after a long hesitation by King Ernst August - was rapidly expanded from 1843 onwards. Together with the building inspector Adolph Funk , Plener worked out extensive plans for a rail link with Hamburg in the 1840s .

Plener was responsible for the plans for the Harburger Hafen seaport and its connection with the Harburg train station , which the royal Hanoverian government then had built in Harburg near Hamburg between 1845 and 1849 after a review by William Cubitt .

After Plener was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Guelph Order in 1853 , he was appointed senior building officer in 1856 and again awarded the Guelph Order in 1863, this time with the Commander's Cross, 2nd class.

Friedrich Plener was a member of the board of the Architects and Engineers Association of Hanover and also editor of the journal of the Architects and Engineers Association for the Kingdom of Hanover .

Plener died on September 8, 1864 and was buried in the royal seat of Hanover in what was then the St. Nikolai cemetery . As an important tomb it can be found as a - listed - pillow tombstone Johann Friedrich Friedrich Philipp Plener .
