Life
Steindorff was born on May 29, 1811 on the Behrensbrook estate in the Duchy of Schleswig . After attending the Schleswig Cathedral School , Steindorff studied medicine at the universities of Berlin , Würzburg and Kiel .
After completing his doctorate in 1833, Steindorff first settled in Flensburg as a general practitioner , but moved to Schleswig in 1840 .
He supported the Schleswig-Holstein survey of 1848-1851 in the pre-parliamentary framework in the organization of German-minded demonstrations and as a military doctor during the war against Denmark . In addition, during this activity drafted several legal regulations for civil medicine for Schleswig-Holstein and worked on the draft of the Schleswig-Holstein constitution of September 15, 1848. Furthermore, Steindorff was elected to the German National Assembly as a member of Schleswig's fourth electoral district. Here he joined the club of the Augsburger Hof and thus the great hereditary imperial party. He was also a member of the first ordinary national assembly elected during the war of 1850.
After Denmark's victory over Schleswig-Holstein, Steindorff was refused by the Danish Crown to stay in Schleswig. After moving to Kiel he worked there as a doctor.
After the Second German-Danish War in 1864, he again stood up for a free, united German Schleswig-Holstein, but refused in vain to oppose the annexation of Schleswig-Holstein by the Kingdom of Prussia . As a realist, however, he accepted the situation after the war and at least saw his dream of a united Schleswig-Holstein in a German confederation come true.
