Born in Essen, he had lived in Stolberg in what was then the Aachen district since 1946 , and in the Mausbach district since the mid- 1950s . During this time he began his commitment to the SPD.

After the local reorganization , he became a member of the Stolberg City Council due to the local elections on April 23, 1972. From October 1977 until his election as mayor, he was chairman of the SPD parliamentary group. On October 16, 1979, he was elected mayor of the city of Stolberg. He replaced Bernhard Kuckelkorn ( CDU ), who held this office from 1952 to 1979. During his term of office, the renovation of the old town of Stolberg fell , which, due to its financial outlay and its results, gained national importance.
