Julius Boethke
Julius Boethke (born March 21, 1864 in Konitz , West Prussia province , † May 25, 1917 in Berlin ) was a German architect .
life and career
His father was the architect Emil Boethke (1828-1896), who worked as a construction clerk in the military building administration. His maternal uncle was the Berlin architect Wilhelm Böckmann . After completing his studies, he worked for the architect Ludwig Hoffmann , where he was involved in the work on the imperial court building in Leipzig . In 1890 Boethke won the Schinkel Prize for his design for a college for music. Julius Boethke then worked for the military building administration in Berlin, where he was involved in building work for larger barracks. Boethke directed the construction of the barracks for the Emperor Alexander Guard Grenadier Regiment No. 1 at the Kupfergraben . He was also involved in the renovation of the Berlin garrison church .
Boethke worked from 1899 to 1913 with the architect Heino Schmieden (1835–1913). With this he planned and built numerous buildings - in particular hospital buildings, for which Schmieden has been an expert since his office partnership with Martin Gropius . Heinrich Schmieden, Heino Schmieden's son, worked in the Schmieden & Boethke office since 1907 . Heino Schmieden has since gradually withdrawn from the office. The similarity of names between father and son Schmieden meant that their share of the work or authorship during this period could not always be clearly assigned. After his father's death, Heinrich Schmieden took over his father’s part of the office and continued to work with Julius Boethke. In 1907 the plans for a military hospital for the Imperial Navy in Flensburg-Mürwik were made together with Heinrich Schmieden. His son also worked on the design. Julius Boethke published in various specialist journals. Some of his treatises were incorporated into comprehensive textbooks. After the outbreak of World War I , as captain of the 2nd Guards Grenadier Landwehr Infantry Regiment, he led army transports through the capital for several months. Boethke died in 1917 as a result of a heart condition.
Awards
Julius Boethke was awarded the Prussian Crown Order III. Class, the Prussian Red Eagle Order IV. Class and the Knight's Cross of the Mecklenburg Order of Griffins . In 1909 he received the Royal Crown for the Red Eagle Order for working on the plans for the Flensburg-Mürwik naval hospital . After working for the Imperial Navy, he was also awarded the title of Imperial Building Councilor.
