Life

Heinrich Handorf was born as the son of a master carpenter in Warin. In 1943 he passed his Abitur in Wismar . This was followed by Reich labor and military service in the Wehrmacht. In 1945 he completed a carpenter internship with his father in the construction &. Cabinet maker H. Handorf in Mühlendammstrasse in Warin. From 1946 to 1949 he studied at the building and engineering school in Wismar and graduated as a structural engineer specializing in architecture. On August 4, 1950, he married the German-Baltic woman Erna Gebhard in Warin. His first engineering activity was working in the Mecklenburg State Building Administration , Stralsund branch. The work in the Ministry of Economics in the construction department in Schwerin from 1949 to 1950 was formative. This was followed by various activities in the Mecklenburg design and construction management office from 1951. With the experience he had gained, he became a lead architect in the VEB Hochbauprojektierung in Schwerin in 1960. In 1968 he moved to VEB Housing Combine in Schwerin (where the management structure was bundled into just one large company). In 1974, after an examination in the Ministry of Building of the GDR, he was appointed to the civil service, to the state building supervision (SBA) of the Schwerin district . There he worked as a test engineer for buildings until 1990. Among other things, he was active in the Central Housing Construction Working Group (this body summarized the construction experience of all districts of the GDR). In 1990, at the end of his professional life, Handorf was given the state designation Dipl.-Ing. (FH) awarded as equality to the professional colleagues in the FRG. Since 1990 Heinrich Handorf produced numerous graphic cycles of old church architecture, nature and city pictures of Mecklenburg. Courses at the district culture academy and the VHS consolidated his painting style. Watercolors, etchings and letterpress prints were shown in regional exhibitions.
