Hermann Nebel
Hermann Nebel (born July 31, 1816 in Koblenz ; † July 23, 1893 there ) was an architect who worked on the Middle Rhine and Moselle and had been a city architect in Koblenz since 1848. In particular, he made pumice known as a building material.
He was the son of the government building inspector and architect Ferdinand Nebel (1783-1860). After he had been elected municipal master builder in Koblenz on December 20, 1848, he made attempts in particular to form building blocks by mixing pumice sand with water and lime. Pumice is available in large quantities in the Koblenz-Neuwied basin. His attempts were successful and the process he developed was soon used by hundreds of companies. In addition to his architectural work, the promotion of the stone industry in the area around Koblenz that he initiated is particularly noteworthy.
