Georg Gottlob Gutbrod , from 1858 von Gutbrod , (born February 19, 1791 in Stuttgart , † October 22, 1861 in Stuttgart) was the city school of Stuttgart from 1833 until his death . He held the honorary title of Lord Mayor .
Butcher's son
Georg Gutbrod was born on February 19, 1791 as the youngest of ten children of the Stuttgart master butcher Lorenz Gutbrod. At the age of 17, he joined the administration in his hometown and slowly worked his way up there. Among other things, he was a council clerk. After Willibald Feuerlein , the first Stuttgart city school leader, resigned , Gutbrod was appointed to this office by Wilhelm I (Württemberg) in March 1833 .
City school hot of Stuttgart
In his more than 28-year tenure, Gutbrod was primarily committed to expanding the infrastructure of the gradually growing royal seat. Gas lighting was introduced during his tenure and Stuttgart was connected to the rail network. In 1836 the village of Berg was incorporated into the city of Stuttgart. During Gutbrod's tenure between 1833 and 1861, the city grew from around 35,000 to around 56,000 inhabitants.
In addition to his office as city school, Gutbrod was a member of the state parliament for Stuttgart between 1839 and 1843 . In 1841 he received the Knight's Cross of the Order of the Württemberg Crown from King Wilhelm I of Württemberg , with which the elevation to the personal nobility was connected.
Gutbrod was buried in the Hoppenlauffriedhof in section 1a (barely legible bed, in the corner to the left of the cemetery entrance on Breitscheidstrasse). Gutbrodstrasse in Stuttgart-West was named after Gutbrod in 1888 . The house at Gutbrodstrasse 1 was built in 1903/1904 by Jakob Mayer and Kärcher & Barth. The "Gutbrodhaus" bears the inscription "Gutbrod Haus" on the corner bay window and a relief with Gutbrod's portrait, each flanked by four maidens of honor.
