Hubert von Grashey
Hubert Grashey , later Hubert (Ritter) von Grashey (born October 31, 1839 in Grönenbach ; † August 24, 1914 in Munich ), was a German psychiatrist .
Life
Hubert Grashey was born in Grönenbach (today Bad Grönenbach) in the Allgäu. His father was a Bavarian judge. After studying medicine in Würzburg (1859–1865), he completed both the faculty and state examinations with “very good”, spent half a year as an assistant doctor in the Würzburg children's clinic and then worked until 1867 at the Würzburg Juliusspital as an insane doctor. Among his other trainers at the Juliusspital was Franz von Rinecker . In Würzburg he received his doctorate in 1866 with a thesis on the cholera epidemic that hit the hospital that year. This was followed by a six-year internship in Werneck , the first two years under the direction of Bernhard von Guddens (1824–1886). He was married to Anna Maria Cornelia Franziska (1857–1915), Gudden's eldest daughter.
In 1873 Grashey was appointed director of the Lower Bavarian insane asylum in Deggendorf, and in 1884 he was appointed full professor of psychiatry and head of the insane clinic in Würzburg. In 1887 he was elected a member of the Leopoldina .
Hubert von Grashey, with his father-in-law Bernhard von Gudden, was one of the controversial co-authors of the report on June 8, 1886 on the mental state of King Ludwig II of Bavaria with the finding that he was no longer able to govern and a report for the Bavarian State Parliament on the events in Mountain. After the death of his father-in-law (together with King Ludwig II) near Berg Castle on Lake Starnberg , he took over his Munich chair for psychiatry and headed the Upper Bavarian insane asylum. Also in succession to his father-in-law, Grashey became head of the medical service for the mentally ill King Otto in Fürstenried Castle on January 1, 1887 .
Grashey's work as an insane doctor and psychiatry professor ended in November 1896, when he moved to the Ministry of the Interior as senior medical advisor and thus became head of the Bavarian medical administration. In 1901 he became a member of the Reich Health Council. In 1909 Hubert Grashey retired.
His son was the doctor and radiologist Rudolf Grashey (1876–1950).
