Johann Baptist Bernlochner (* 1799 in Dietramszell ; † November 8, 1869 in Landshut ) was a German builder and theater entrepreneur . He built houses in and around Landshut, especially the Bernlochner complex with a theater.

Life

Bernlochner's father and grandfather were monastery masons at the Dietramszell monastery . He passed his master mason examination in Munich in 1826. In 1826 he acquired Landshut citizenship. He married the daughter of a Landshut master builder and moved with her into the house at Rosengasse 350, her dowry . He also received the master mason rights .

From 1826 he built houses in Landshut, some of which are now architectural monuments . In 1835 he was next to Simon Pausinger on the local building commission of the city of Landshut. In 1839 he built the Ottonianum .

From 1839, Bernlochner acquired several properties on the Isar and opened the Gasthof zum Goldenen Hahn here in 1841 , which was operated as the Bernlochner restaurant until 2019 . The restaurant and the Bernlochnersäle have been owned by the city of Landshut since spring 2016 .

The adjoining theater was opened in October 1941 and the Bernlochner complex quickly became the cultural center of Landshut. The balls in the Redoutensaal , which Bernlochner first equipped with 100 modern gas lights from 1857, were social highlights in Landshut. Bernlochner had his own box there. The Redoutensaal is still in operation today.

In 1857, Bernlochner first used gas for lighting in his theater. The city of Landshut followed in 1858, founded a gas factory for the gas supply and laid the foundation stone for today's Stadtwerke Landshut.

In 1849 he built the Catholic parish church of St. Vitus in Teisbach near Dingolfing , and in 1857 the brick buildings of the Landshut train station . In 1858 he founded the Landshut volunteer fire brigade , of which he was the first in command. With his mixture of sociability and inventiveness, he was respected by his fellow citizens.

In 1869 he lost his entire fortune in bankruptcy, suffered a stroke and died two weeks later.

Bernlochner had ten children from three marriages.
