Life

Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Hasselbach was born in Anklam. In the literature it is stated that his father was superintendent . But the only eligible superintendent, Wilhelm Christoph Hasselbach, would have been around 80 years old when the son was born. It is possible that Karl Friedrich Wilhelm Hasselbach was his grandson, perhaps a son of his son, Christoph Theophil Hasselbach, who was a deacon in 1772 and pastor and praepositus at St. Nikolai in Anklam in 1788.

He attended the Latin school in Anklam and then studied from 1799 at the University of Halle . In 1802 he became a teacher at the Berlin Gymnasium for the Gray Monastery , for which Friedrich Gedike had won him over.

In 1803 he became a teacher at the Marienstiftsgymnasium in Stettin . He stayed at this traditional school, in 1828 he succeeded Friedrich Koch as its director. As headmaster he worked at the time of a great boom in the Prussian grammar schools. Important teachers at the Marienstiftsgymnasium were among others Ludwig Giesebrecht and Wilhelm Böhmer . Towards the end of his tenure, Hasselbach ran into difficulties with the superior school authorities; According to the Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie , there were "some official discussions about his position in relation to the stricter ecclesiastical direction that was favored from above at the time". In 1854 he retired and lived in Grünhof near Stettin until his death in 1864.

Hasselbach worked together with Johann Gottfried Ludwig Kosegarten on the first volume of the Codex Pomeraniae diplomaticus , a document book on the history of Pomerania that went up to 1253 . He also published smaller papers on the history of Pomerania and on educational topics. Hasselbach was an active member of the Art Association for Pomerania founded in 1834 .

Hasselbach's wife Charlotte was the sister of the pastor, writer and painter Theodor Schwarz .
