Johann Friedrich Dändliker
Johann Friedrich Dändliker (born October 16, 1821 in Hombrechtikon , † December 7, 1900 in Bern ), pseudonym : Salomon Tandilus , was a Swiss pietist and Diakonie head .
Life
Johann Friedrich Dändliker was the son of the estate and vine owner Johann Kaspar Dändliker. He attended the boys' institute in Stäfa and, like his father, received training as a tanner . During his years of traveling from 1840 to 1843 in Germany and England , he was converted in 1841 in the Moravian Brethren . After his return he managed the parental estate and was director of the chicory factory in Hemishofen . In 1855 he became the "householder" of the deaconess house in Bern (today: Stiftung Diaconis ), which was founded by his first wife in 1844 as an asylum for the sick; under his leadership, the plant grew and gained importance in Switzerland , France , Italy and Germany. In 1894 the Diakonie Bern included:
- 38 hospitals ;
- 9 old people's homes ;
- 21 community maintenance;
- 5 day nurseries ;
- 4 girls' hostels.
Together with his first wife, he traveled to Germany several times to get ideas for the further development of their diakonia. On the occasion of the first conference of the Upper Rhine deaconess houses on September 3, 1869 in Stuttgart , Johann Friedrich Dändliker gave a lecture on hints for the formation of deaconesses and has since been considered an authority in deaconess training . He supported and promoted Samuel Zeller , who, after the death of Dorothea Trudel , continued her work in Männedorf , which developed into an important place of the Pietist revival movement of the 19th century. In 1888 he had the Salem Hospital built in Bern. He was also gifted in drawing and, among other things, drew a panorama of the Hochwacht near the sister district in Hombrechtikon in 1848 . Johann Friedrich Dändliker was married to Sophie (born September 30, 1809 in Bern, † April 17, 1878 ibid), daughter of the historian Johann Ludwig Wurstemberger and his wife Anna Susanna Katharina (née Wild), for the first time since 1855 . His wife was the founder of the Salem Hospital in Bern. In her honor, the old people's home in Ranflüh was renamed Dändlikerhaus . His second marriage was on February 17, 1880 in Bern, the girlfriend of his first wife Johanna Juli ( Jenny ) (* 1841 in Basel), daughter of Johannes Schnell (1812–1899), Professor of Law at the University of Basel . They had a son together who, however, died shortly after the birth.
