Hermann Wielers

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hermann Wielers (born May 25, 1845 in Münster , † December 28, 1917 in Bochum ) was a German architect who was based in Bochum from around 1880 and designed over 30 Catholic churches in the Ruhr area and in Westphalia.

His son Bernhard Wielers (1897–1957) later also worked as an architect in Bochum, but was too young to continue his office when his father died.
