Konrad Dietrich Haßler, around 1848

Konrad Dietrich Haßler (also Conrad Dietrich Hassler ; born May 18, 1803 in Altheim (Alb) , † April 15, 1873 in Ulm ) was a German teacher, theologian, orientalist, philologist, politician and monument conservator.

Life

Haßler was born in 1803 as the son of an evangelical parish deacon in the former imperial city-Ulmischen, but at the time of his birth Bavarian Altheim on the Swabian Alb . In 1810 the place became part of the Kingdom of Württemberg . Haßler studied Protestant theology , philosophy and oriental studies in Tübingen , Leipzig and Paris . In 1824 he received his doctorate at the University of Tübingen, in 1825 he became a member of the Old Tübingen fraternity and the fraternity of Germania Tübingen . In 1826 he became vicar in Lorch , but in the same year he switched to a teaching position at the grammar school in Ulm . There he worked as a teacher until 1865. Hassler was active in community life of the city: since 1839 he was a member of the "Ulmer Danube Steamship Company", even in its first year in 1841, he joined the "Association of Art and Archeology in Ulm and Upper Swabia," was involved in the student Ulmer Landsmannschaft , and from 1843 he belonged to the Masonic lodge "Asträa zu den Drei Elmen".

From 1845 to 1848 Haßler was a member of the Württemberg state parliament . He was considered a moderately liberal politician. In 1848 Haßler was sent to the Frankfurt National Assembly in the Frankfurt Paulskirche with 70% of the vote as a member of the constituency Ulm-Laupheim-Blaubeuren . Hassler, who was elected as liberal, represented the cause of the monarchy there for pragmatic reasons, since in view of the powerful monarchies on German soil he did not believe in a success of a republic. On behalf of the “Redactions Commission” of the Frankfurt National Assembly, Haßler published the parliamentary minutes from 1848–1849. After the failure of the plans for a German hereditary empire, Haßler resigned from parliament on April 11, 1849.

As a result, he shifted his voluntary commitment to the preservation of monuments , especially the activities of the Association for Art and Antiquity , of which he was chairman from 1850 to 1868. In this role he actively promoted the completion of the Ulm Minster . In 1858, on the recommendation of Minister Gustav von Rümelin , he was appointed the first Württemberg state curator for the preservation of monuments, and in 1867 he was head of the state collection for patriotic art and ancient monuments .

Haßler published numerous historical, art-historical and educational writings, including on the history of Ulm book printing and the medieval art history of the city. Some of his writings appeared as treatises in school programs . He also edited several volumes of older literature in the library series of the Litterarian Society in Stuttgart . In 1868 he was one of the founding members of the Association for the History of Lake Constance and its Surroundings .

In 1873 Haßler died in Ulm of pneumonia.

family

Haßler was with Margarete, geb. Müller (1802–1881) married, the daughter of the Ulm parish priest. Of the couple's eleven children, five survived childhood. Theodor Haßler (1828–1901) was an engineer, industrialist in Augsburg and president of the Central Association of German Industrialists. Konrad Dietrich Haßler the Younger (1837-1919) was a teacher in Schwäbisch Hall and Ulm. He published, among other things, a translation of Felix Fabri's treatise on the city of Ulm (1909).
