from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich Sohnrey (also: Andreas Christoph Friedrich Sohnrey and ACF Sohnrey ; * before 1836, † after 1892 ) was a Hanoverian land surveyor and draftsman for the Royal Railway Directorate in Hanover .

Life

Career

Sohnrey entered the state service of the Kingdom of Hanover on November 1, 1836 , before he was initially the only draftsman in the technical revision department at the Royal Railway Directorate Hanover, which was founded on March 13, 1843 in the course of the beginning industrialization Landmesser and finally referred to as "technical railway secretary". At times up to 4 "Hülfs draftsmen" were subordinate to him. In the Hanover address book of 1886 he was also listed as a planning chamber administrator and a certified and sworn surveyor .

Although Sohnrey referred to himself as a "draftsman for the Royal Railway Directorate" on the plan of the royal capital of Hanover published by him in 1846 , he apparently had enough time and opportunities to work for various clients. He was particularly active in the decades after the start of railway construction. A systematic review of at least the files and documents received in Hanover and a complete listing of his Hanoverian surveying work had not yet taken place up to 1960.

Politically, Sohnrey was on the side of the reactionary government. In May 1861 , Die Zeit reported an address of allegiance to Sohnreys and others on the king's birthday, expressing their "confidence in the councilors of the crown and asking them to keep them". Sohnrey was then awarded the Hanover General Badge of Honor (HaEZ) and received an audience with Minister Borries . In November 1861 a leaflet appeared anonymously, which - as reported by the Troppauer Zeitung and the Allgemeine Zeitung - was directed against the election recommendation of Sohnreys and others on the occasion of the mayor elections and was confiscated by the police. After the liberal side had won the election, the leaflet was published in full in the Magdeburgische Zeitung .

Sohnrey was a member of the Hanoverian Surveyor Association, an organization founded in 1882, which was renamed the Hanoverian Landmesser Association in 1885 and is one of the scientific societies of the 19th century. There, in July 1883, Sohnrey gave a lecture on "The railway property inventory in relation to the property tax register". On the occasion of his 50th anniversary of service on November 1st, 1886, a three-person deputation from the Hanoverian Surveyor's Association congratulated their member, Sohnrey, on the anniversary in his apartment. On the same day, at a banquet organized for him in the zoological garden , Sohnrey was awarded the 4th class Red Eagle Order , which also had the number 50.

family

Sohnrey was married to Helene, nee Glänzer († after 1935). Sohnrey's son Karl Sohnrey attended the building trade school in Nienburg / Weser and enrolled at the age of 18 on October 20, 1862 under matriculation 3785 at the Polytechnic School in Hanover, where he studied until March 10, 1864.

Works (if known)

Plan of the royal residence city of Hanover from 1846

First "plan of the Royal residence of Hanover" with the Ernst-August-Stadt , 1846 issued by Sohnrey and the King Ernst August dedicated

During the construction of the first main train station in Hanover from 1845 to 1847 , Sohnrey recorded the streetscape of Hanover and drew a “ plan of the royal residence city of Hanover ” with a detailed frontal view of the later central station and the buildings surrounding the station forecourt above the plan. Among them, according to Ludwig Hoerner , Sohnrey drew the "plan of the city of Hanover with the Ernst-August-Stadt incorporated in 1847 and the neighboring suburbs ". This Hanover city map already included the new Ernst-August-Stadt . He had the additional print in his head:

“Devoted to His Majesty the King Ernst August with the most gracious permission in deepest reverence by ACF Sohnrey, draftsman at the Königl. Railway Direction. "

The spring lithography in the format 49.5 cm x 57.3 cm was from the " F. Wunder'schen Steindruckerei reproduced". The work, made in different light colors, was executed on a sheet of 67 × 61 cm.

The only later, "on May 1, 1847 completed station" can be found as an illustrative architectural drawing made by Sohnrey as an excerpt from the head of his city map in a 1991 chronicle on the history of the "railways in Hanover".

The plan is also "an excellent reproduction of the narrower area of ​​the old and new town of Hanover, which was united in 1824. "

In the year after the plan was published, the Historical Association for Lower Saxony listed Sohnrey's plan available for 1 Reichstaler in 1847 under the title "Geographical-topographical literature".

The plan, originally dedicated to King Ernst August , was recorded in the private library of the heir to the throne and then reigning King George V in 1858 . Even more than a century later, Sohnrey was listed as the independent publisher of the city map he had drawn, both in the Hanover Chronicle and by the city surveying office of the state capital of Hanover. For the heading "[...] drawn and published in 1846 by ACF Sohnrey", a facsimile was also created for the loose-leaf collection Hannover Archive .

Originals can be found in the city ​​survey office of Hanover and in the Lower Saxony State Archives (Hanover location) .

Further works and archive material (selection)

  • 1844: Map of the railways under construction and projected in the Kingdom of Hanover, drawn under the direction of the building officer Mohn von Sohnrey, Hanover 1844. After the opening of the first railway line in the Kingdom of Hanover from Hanover to Lehrte on October 22, 1843, Sohnrey drew under the direction the building officer Johann Heinrich August Mohn already in the following year 1844 a plan with the already executed or under construction railway lines Harburg-Lüneburg, Hanover-Lehrte-Braunschweig and Celle-Lehrte-Hildesheim; the so-called "Kreuzbahn". The plan also included the Bremen-Verden-Nienburg-Brokeloh-Neustadt-Hanover, also Hanover-Wunstorf-Minden and Bremen-Verden-Kampen-Hudemühlen ..., in short, all of the railway lines planned at the time in the kingdom.
  • 1850: Map of Geestemünde and Bremerhaven , drawing by Sohnrey, colored pen drawing , 63.5 × 42 cm; in the Lower Saxony State Archives (location Stade)
  • At the beginning of the 1850s, the Guelphs worried about the massive onset of industrialization on the banks of the Leine and the Ihme in Nedderfeld, which caused the royal complexes up to the Great Garden in Herrenhausen to suffer severe impairments:

“The surveyor, Sohnrey, was then commissioned to draw a map of the Nedderfeld with the Herrenhausen Gardens and the Georgengarten and to draw the visual relationships between the two royal houses, the Deister and the Lindener Berggasthaus using 'lines of sight'. Equipped with this document, Laves was commissioned to design a street map for the Nedderfeld. It was intended to prevent complete development by buying up land. "

  • 1854: On January 26, 1848, Sohnrey had already informed the Royal Office of Hanover that he was working on maps of the two suburbs of Hanover and the Glocksee and that he would like to finish them soon. Apparently he had previously put together original plans by Köhler with plans by Karl Seweloh and August Wilhelm Papen together with the riding forester Johann Philipp Wilhelm Köhler . Sohnrey is considered to be the likely originator of the four-part "Plan of the Royal Residence City of Hanover, the suburbs of Hanover and Glocksee and the municipality of Linden ". After the card with the suburbs and the Glocksee had publicly unsuccessful, it was on September 11, 1854 to the official road map explained and than by Johann Georg Schwab crafted monochrome lithography in the publishing of C. Schrader's successor issued. The map was subsequently used by the commission to determine the streets in the suburb of Hanover as well as the royal building commission of the suburb for all of their planning and building permits. A cardboard reproduction of the map has been preserved in the archive of the city planning and surveying office in the building of the Hanover building administration . In his introduction , the monument conservator Arnold Nöldeke used an A3-sized copy of the plan as an illustration of the development of soft images in his work Die Kunstdenkmäler der Provinz Hannover, published in 1932 . The Hanover Historical Museum has an original copy .
  • 1857: In 1857, Sohnrey prepared a site plan of the official residence of the court garden master of the Herrenhausen plantations for the royal court on a scale of 1: 500. The piece came from the provenance of the Hofbauverwaltung in the Lower Saxony State Archive (Hanover location) and was digitized for use there.
  • In 1857, Sohnrey received an order from the suburb 's road commission for a precise plan from the area east of the area known as “Taubenfeld” to the east of the garden of Monbrillant Castle , in order to be able to undertake further planning and the completion of the road network in this district on this basis.
  • 1857–1858: Construction and street alignment markings on the Lange Laube street
  • 1859: Drawing of a double residential building at Hildesheimer Straße 11 , which the royal Hanoverian court building director Georg Ludwig Friedrich Laves copied as "traces and traces of buildings by other architects" and which is today in the collection and estate of Laves under the number 2986 in the city ​​archive of Hanover .
  • 1864: With the plan “Hannover Train Station” from 1864, Sohnrey gave an overview of the railway facilities at the time, including the so-called “Producten-Hof” on the former Eselswiese and the new municipal packing yard. A copy of the plan was found in the Umfuhr III file of the Hanover surveying office in the post-war period .
