Heinrich Tugendhold Stiepel (born August 7, 1822 in Haßlinghausen , Westphalia, † March 20, 1886 in Reichenberg , Austria-Hungary ) was an Austrian printer and publisher.

Life

Heinrich Tugendhold Stiepel, the son of the village school teacher and later entrepreneur Heinrich Stiepel , learned the typesetting trade in Bochum and later worked in Aachen and in the Silesian town of Waldenburg .

At the Prager Zeitung he became Metteur en pages in 1851 . In 1853 he acquired the Moritz Adam printing house in Rumburg , whose publishing house published the Rumburger Anzeiger and, from 1857, the North Bohemian Mountain Bote.

In 1857 Stiepel obtained the printer's license for Reichenberg , while he left the printing shop in Rumburg to his brother Julius Robert Stiepel (born April 7, 1826 in Haßlinghausen; † January 1, 1887 in Freindorf, Upper Austria). He himself also moved to Reichenberg.

With the help of the textile industrialist Johann Liebieg , he published the liberal Reichenberger Zeitung from 1860 onwards . Alexander von Peez was the first editor-in-chief. In 1866 his brother Julius, who also sold the Rumburg publishing house again, joined the publishing house, which was then renamed the Stiepel brothers . The newspaper developed into the German-language newspaper with the highest circulation in North and West Bohemia.

Stiepel died of a heart attack in 1886. His work was continued by his son Wilhelm Friedrich Johann von Stiepel .
