Johann Baptist Schott
Johann Baptist Schott (born January 31, 1853 in Schönau near Bad Kohlgrub , † July 14, 1913 in Stockdorf am Starnberger See ) was a German architect .
Life
In 1872 he enrolled at the newly opened Royal Polytechnic School in Munich as an engineering student. Since 1880 he lived in Munich. In 1896 he married Anna Rucker from Pfeffenhausen .
His first independent work dates from 1879. In 1886 he founded a special architecture office for church art under his name in Munich . The focus of his work until 1895 was exclusively in the Diocese of Passau , where he assumed a dominant position and was used in the planning of numerous sacred building projects. But he also created several new church buildings in the dioceses of Regensburg , Munich-Freising and Bamberg . Schott mastered the entire range of historicism . For example, the parish church of St. Nikolaus in Zwiesel was built in the neo-Gothic style, and the basilica of St. Anna in Altötting in the neo-baroque style .
In addition to churches, he designed parsonages, cemetery facilities, the boys' seminar in Passau and schools. Shortly before his death he was raised to the personal nobility by Prince Regent Luitpold . He was no longer able to realize his plans to expand the area of activity into the Rhine Palatinate .
The total number of his sacred and profane building, planning and furnishing measures amounts to 170 individual projects with 145 different locations.
