Hans Klüppelberg (born May 25, 1904 in Moscow , † May 31, 1962 in Hanover ) was a German architect .
Life
Hans Klüppelberg was born in Moscow in 1904 during the Tsar's time , where his father worked as a civil engineer. In 1910 the family moved first to Remscheid , then to Hanover in 1912. Hans Klüppelberg attended the Humboldt Realgymnasium there until he graduated from high school in 1922 . He then began a commercial apprenticeship, during which a doctor friend discovered Klüppelberg's talent for drawing. This is how Hans Klüppelberg came into contact with the architect Adolf Falke , who taught him how to draw . During this time, a lifelong paternal friendship develops between the two men.
In 1924 Klüppelberg himself began studying architecture at the Technical University in Hanover, where he completed his main state examination in 1928. Some years he worked in various architectural offices until he - after the seizure of power by the National Socialists - in 1934 automatically made.
In the year of the beginning of the Second World War , Hans Klüppelberg was forced to work as an employee at the Hanover Army Construction Office in 1939 , but was able to evade this activity after a - successful - application to the UFA film company in Babelsberg . Since then he has built halls and functional buildings in various locations for the German film industry. During these years under the Nazi regime, Hans Klüppelberg secretly assigned various planning tasks to his former mentor , the architect Adolf Falke, who had meanwhile been banned from practicing his profession and was therefore forced to remain inactive. Although this transfer of work was not publicly visible, the two men ran the risk of being exposed and politically punished by the Nazi regime at any time.
After the war, Hans Klüppelberg returned to Hanover in 1945, where he resumed his work as a freelancer . Before the Federal Republic of Germany was founded, he was accepted into the Association of German Architects (BDA) on January 9, 1947 .
Hans Klüppelberg soon also worked as a member of the expert ( building maintenance ) advisory board of the state capital Hanover.
