Life

After completing his dissertation in 1789, Tuckermann initially became a private lecturer at the Georg-August University in Göttingen . In 1794 he was appointed syndic of the city of Göttingen. In 1799 he became one of the mayors in Göttingen as the successor to Christian Ludwig Richard. During the French period and when Göttingen belonged to the Kingdom of Westphalia as the canton of Göttingen , he was canton mayor of the city from March 1808 to 1813 . Even after that, he remained in office, now royal mayor of Hanover , until his death. Together with his friend, the building contractor Christian Friedrich Andreas Rohns , he managed the urban development of Göttingen at the beginning of the 19th century. During this time, Göttingen experienced its classicist character. Georg Christoph Ernst Ebell succeeded him as mayor.
