Windisch, born. He still had four brothers and four sisters:

He studied pharmacy in Görlitz and then worked as an assistant in various offices in Dresden , Leipzig , Göttingen and Hanover .

In 1805 he was drafted into the Saxon army as a field pharmacist and marched with the army corps to Thuringia . After the conclusion of the Peace of Pressburg on December 26, 1805, he was put on waiting money and stayed in Dresden during this time to give lectures in botany. In 1806, when the Saxon troops with the Prussian army moved against the Grande Armée , he was ordered to Apolda as a military pharmacist with the Saxon field pharmacy . After the battle of Jena and Auerstedt on October 14, 1806, most of the field pharmacy fell into the hands of the French and Johann Christoph Hasse fled to his brother Traugott Leberecht Hasse, who worked as an official at the royal Hanover ironworks in Elbingerode and Rothehütte in the Harz region was active; later he returned to Dresden.

In the Peace of Posen of December 11, 1806, the Saxon Elector Friedrich August I committed himself to make 20,000 men of his army available to the Rhine Confederation . Johann Christoph Hasse was now employed as a field pharmacist in the outpatient hospital of the royal Saxon contingent and was ordered to Poland in 1807 to join the Imperial French Army . After a few months in Warsaw , he was ordered back to Dresden. He had to interrupt his botany studies, which had begun in the meantime, in mid-July 1809 because he was ordered to Regensburg with the field pharmacy . From there it was moved to Pressburg in September 1809 , because the French army besieged the city after Austria and Great Britain had stood against France in 1809 . After signing a peace treaty, he returned to Dresden in 1810. In February 1810 the military hospital moved to Weißenfels and shortly afterwards he was commissioned to build a fortress pharmacy in Torgau in order to supply all the military hospitals of the Saxon army; in the meantime he had been promoted to chief pharmacist . In December 1811 he was sent to the Grand Duchy of Warsaw and stayed there until November 1812, when he marched back to Torgau with the remnants of the French and Saxon armies of the Russian campaign to manage the fortress pharmacy there again. Because of the imminent division of the country, Torgau fell to Prussia after the resolutions of the Congress of Vienna in 1815 , the fortress pharmacy was moved from Torgau to Chemnitz; he kept the management of the fortress pharmacy until 1817.

In 1815 he received the recommendation of General Karl von Gersdorff for a license to operate a pharmacy, whereupon he opened the "Neue Apotheke" in Chemnitz, which he sold again in 1830 for health reasons, then he dealt with agriculture by trying to the silk cultivation to cultivate. In addition, he gave free lessons in technical chemistry at the newly established trade school in Chemnitz

In 1815 he married Karoline Christiane geb. Laurentius, the widow of the deacon Johann Gottlieb Ernst Gulich, who was killed on May 25, 1813 by the ruins of the town church in Bischofswerda, which burned down on May 12, 1813. His wife brought two daughters into the marriage; they had two sons together, the youngest of whom was born in 1820 and died four months before him.
