Hans Jaeckel (born October 31, 1898 in Uelzen ; † November 7, 1962 in Hanover ) was a German architect.
Life
Born at the time of the German Empire , Hans Jaeckel first attended the Uelzen City School from 1905 and then the secondary school there , where he graduated from high school in the middle of World War I in 1917. In the same year and until 1919 he completed his military service in order to study architecture at the Technical University of Hanover at the beginning of the Weimar Republic from 1919 and to conclude with the main diploma examination in 1923.
Also from 1923 Jaeckel worked for the architects Wendhut & Wolf in his hometown of Uelzen, from 1924 then for the Lower Saxony homestead in Hanover. From 1926 he worked for the architect Wilhelm Fricke in Hildesheim and Hanover before he was employed by the Hanover State Insurance Company from 1929 to 1931 and then became unemployed.
From 1933 to 1936 Hans Jaeckel worked as a research assistant under Uvo Hölscher and Paul Kanold at the Technical University of Hanover, and from 1936 worked as a freelance architect, at times in collaboration with the architect Jürg Hartmann . In 1943 and until 1945, Jaeckel did a second military service in the so-called “ Volkssturm ”, this time during World War II .
After the end of the war, Jaeckel was able to open his own architecture office as early as 1945 - with the approval of the British military authorities - and was accepted into the Association of German Architects (BDA) on January 17, 1947 . As its member, he took on various honorary posts , including on the expert and building maintenance advisory board of the state capital of Hanover.
