Life

After attending the Hohenlohesches Landesgymnasium in Öhringen and the monastery school in Schöntal, he studied Protestant theology at the Evangelical Monastery in Tübingen . There he was a member of the 1832 Feuerreiter and was as fraternity and demagogue because of participation in an illegal connection after two weeks of detention to two years in prison convicted. In 1837 he took his exam in Tübingen.

Bauer was initially a deacon in Aalen from 1847 , then from 1854 a pastor in Künzelsau . From 1864 to 1872 he was dean of the Weinsberg church district .

In 1847, together with others, he founded the Historical Association for Württemberg Franconia, which still exists .

Bauer published a large number of articles in the club magazine (and other regional history magazines), which were mainly devoted to the genealogy of medieval aristocratic families. He edited the historical parts of several Oberamt descriptions (Aalen, Gmünd and others).
