Life

Gustav Schaumann was the son of a royal Hanover cavalry master. He studied at the TH Aachen and in Berlin. After passing his first state examination , Schaumann worked for over seven months at the Lübeck building authority . After serving in the civil service for a few years , he joined the municipal service in 1889 . First in Hanover , then as a city ​​planning inspector , namely as head of the building construction department in Elberfeld, and finally in the same position in Halle an der Saale as a building officer .

On March 31, 1891, Schaumann, who was of the Lutheran denomination, married Maria, nee Rose (born October 15, 1868, † after 1938/37 in Schönberg ), the daughter of Major Rose.

Lübeck

On 11 December 1895, the elected Lübeck Senate takes the place of a town planner for Munich appointed Adolf Schwiening the city building inspector from Halle as building officer for Civil Wegebauten while the curator of Lübeckischen art and monuments .

On June 2, 1896, Schaumann was elected a member of the Society for the Promotion of Charitable Activities and on November 17 as head of the Museum of Lübeck Art and Cultural History . On January 16, 1897, he followed Schwiening in office as head of the collection of paintings, copperplate engravings and plaster casts. In the same year he was elected head of the non-profit organization, appointed judge for the planned Kaiser Wilhelm monument and he became a member of the board of the arts and crafts association. He brought Johannes Baltzer , who was to become his successor in office, on July 1, 1898, as a building inspector in the city. In the same year, Schaumann became an assessor in the arbitration tribunal of the construction deputation and board member of the Lübeck Schiller Foundation . In the presence of the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin on October 25, 1902 during his visit to Lübeck, Schaumann was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of the Griffins . Eugen Deditius ( building police ) was elected on March 31, 1903 to replace the resigning Schaumann in the head of the non-profit organization. In the presence of the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin during his visit to Lübeck, Schaumann was awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of the Griffins.

First, Schaumann completed the courthouse that his predecessor had begun in connection with the old buildings of the castle monastery . The barracks for Infantry Regiment No. 162 followed . Then the IV. And V St. Lorenz School, the teachers' seminar on Langen Lohberg , two pavilions of the General Hospital , the new building of the warm bathing house in Travemünde , the fire station or the new St. Lorenz Church in the suburb of St. Lorenz , the school building of the boys' middle school ( Glockengießerstraße ) and a large number of conversions and extensions such as the Holy Spirit Hospital , the Moisling school and the slaughterhouse .

As a conservator, Schaumann tried successfully to introduce the then completely new view of the preservation of monuments and homeland security in the city. The later Lübeck Monument Protection Act fell back on his suggestions and suggestions.

In order to maintain and repair the old buildings in Lübeck, under his supervision, the brick building was resumed in its old form, with new buildings made of hand-made stones, some in a large historical format. With his cooperation, provisions for the prevention of defacement of the cityscape and the scenic surroundings of Lübeck were included in the building regulations.

The recording of the inventory of the Luebeck buildings and art monuments was started by Schaumann with the publication of the 1st volume - Petrikirche , Marienkirche and the Heilige-Geist-Hospital. The type and design of that volume pointed the way for further processing of the inventory.

Some of the restoration works by Schaumann were:

  • Füchtingshof

  • Navigation school

  • Fire station

  • Warm bathing establishment in Travemünde

  • St. Lorenz Church

  • New barracks

In Lübeck, too, Schaumann made a name for himself in the area of urban development , which was completely new at the time . He was the first to introduce spacious settlements based on single-family homes . As a result, Lübeck's housing conditions ranked first among German cities alongside Bremen in terms of the low housing rate .

He played a decisive role in the urban planning of the new main station . His successors built on his foundations.

Frankfurt

On July 31, 1903, Schaumann resigned from the Lübeck civil service and followed the call to Frankfurt am Main as city planning officer. On April 16, 1903, he was elected to the paid city council as successor to Behnke. Here he worked for 22 years, including under Mayor Franz Adickes , as the city's building consultant. He also carried out a number of large and largest buildings and participated in legislative work, particularly in the area of hereditary construction .

From 1911 to 1918 he was a member of the Nassau municipal parliament and the provincial parliament of the Hesse-Nassau province for the Frankfurt district . In the municipal council he was a member of the building committee.

After Schaumann retired in 1925, he devoted himself to private studies of medieval art. He died at the age of 76 on a study trip to Italy.
