Johann Ludwig Weinbrenner
Johann Ludwig Weinbrenner (* 1790 in Karlsruhe , † 1858 ) was a Baden architect . He became known for the construction of sacred buildings and town halls in the Grand Duchy of Baden , most of which were built between 1818 and 1835.
Live and act
Johann Ludwig Weinbrenner was the nephew of the architect Friedrich Weinbrenner . From 1802 to 1808 he studied architecture at his uncle's building school in Karlsruhe . Until 1814 he worked in the grand ducal building office and supervised the construction of the new Evangelical City Church in Karlsruhe . He spent the years from 1814 to 1817 on a scholarship in Rome, which resulted in a friendship with Friedrich von Gärtner . From 1819 he was a district master builder in Müllheim . Then he took over the same post in Loerrach . From 1825 he was a district master builder in Baden-Baden and from 1835 in Rastatt. In his later buildings he increasingly broke away from the classicist architectural style of Friedrich Weinbrenner and joined the historicizing direction of the round arch style , as represented by his successors Heinrich Hübsch and Friedrich von Gärtner.
