Heinrich Andriano

Heinrich Andriano (* 1774 in Mannheim ; † March 2, 1836 , ibid) was a German businessman and politician. From 1833 to 1835 he was First Mayor of Mannheim.

Live and act

Heinrich Andriano, fourth son of the businessman Jakob Andriano, was a member of a well-respected bourgeois family of Italian origin, who lived in Kirchheim am Ries near Nördlingen at the end of the 17th century , but came from Canova near Lenno . He was appointed First Mayor of Mannheim by the district government after they had elected Dr. Christian Wilhelm Gerbel (1791-1853) had refused several times. Andriano was not a man of struggle. He had a big grocery store, engaged in public charity work with distinction, but wanted nothing to do with politics. His resistance was not heard by the district government; she threatened coercive measures if he did not accept the post of Lord Mayor . He stayed for three years against his will in the office, which he dutifully headed, but without undertaking the reforms in the organization that had become necessary and were left to his successor, Ludwig Jolly .

During his administration, Andriano received an exceptional honor from the court and the ministry.
