Gustav Knoblauch

Gustav Knoblauch (born October 25, 1833 in Berlin ; † February 26, 1916 there ) was a German architect .

Life

Gustav Knoblauch, son of the Berlin architect Eduard Knoblauch (1801–1865) discovered his interest in his later professional career through his father's activities. After an apprenticeship with a master bricklayer in Halberstadt , Gustav Knoblauch completed a course of study at the Berlin Building Academy , which he completed with an exam as a private master builder . In 1862, Knoblauch took over his father's architectural office after his father could no longer continue to work due to illness. In 1865 Knoblauch teamed up professionally with his long-time friend and architect Friedrich Hollin. In 1866 he graduated from the building academy as a master builder. After the death of his friend Hollin, Knoblauch worked with the architect Hermann Wex (died 1887) from 1871 to 1887 . From 1909 he trained together with his son Arnold and the a. D. Ernst Mellin a community of architects. In 1879 Knoblauch was one of the founding members of the Association of Berlin Architects.

In addition to his work as an architect, Gustav Knoblauch also volunteered for the city of Berlin. Here he worked as a citizen's deputy for the craft and technical training schools.

In his professional career, Knoblauch was, in addition to his architectural activities, on the one hand director of the construction company Belle Alliance based in Berlin and chairman of the supervisory board of Greppiner Werke. The Greppiner Werke produced a hard-fired yellow clinker brick ( Greppiner Klinker ), which was preferably used in facade construction at the time.

Gustav Knoblauch was married to Hulda Sophie Gertrud (* 1851), a daughter of the head of the city council, Dr. med. Paul Langerhans , son of the construction officer Friedrich Wilhelm Langerhans . He had the children Julie Anna (* 1873), Arnold Paul and Elisabeth Margarethe (* 1882). His brother was the architect Edmund Knoblauch .
