Hermann Hunaeus (full name Hermann Franz August Ferdinand Hunaeus or Franz August Hermann Ferdinand Hunaeus , born April 12, 1812 in Clausthal , † September 5, 1893 in (Bad) Lauterberg ) was a German architect and Hanoverian construction officer . The Secret Government and Building Council is one of the earliest representatives of the Hanoverian round arch style and is assigned to the Hanover School of Architecture .

Life

His brother or cousin was the geodesist Georg Christian Konrad Hunäus .

After studying architecture in Munich with Friedrich von Gärtner, Hunaeus (different spelling: Hunäus) worked as a master builder in Hanover from 1835, first as a war architect from 1836 (in the service of the Kingdom of Hanover), from 1879/1880 as a secret government and building councilor. He designed numerous government and military buildings in Hanover, but also private houses. In 1842 he was a co-founder of the “Architects and Engineers Association of Hanover” and undertook study trips in 1843 to Braunschweig, Bohemia and southern Germany and in 1852 with Conrad Wilhelm Hase to Switzerland and Italy, the latter to study hospital buildings. Along with Hase and Ernst Ebeling , Hunaeus was one of the most important representatives of the Hanoverian round arch style. From 1885 he lived in retirement in Lauterberg (Harz).
