childhood and education

His father was a teacher and had seven siblings. Moosauer himself grew up in Attenhausen near Landshut with two siblings. He attended the Hans-Carossa-Gymnasium in Landshut, graduated from high school in 1963, studied medicine in Munich, where he passed his state examination in 1970 at the Ludwig Maximilians University in Munich . In the same year he received his doctorate in medicine from the Technical University of Munich .

Professional activity and political offices

He became a specialist in internal medicine and during this time worked at the Oberföhring Hospital in Munich. There he was involved in the staff council and was its chairman. At the beginning of 1978 he established himself as a general practitioner internist in the north of Munich. He practiced until October 2010.

Manfred Moosauer has been a local councilor in Haimhausen for 17 years , and was a district councilor in the Dachau district for several years .

Volunteering

In addition to his professional activity, Moosauer also developed a diverse interest in nature and the environment, art and culture, as well as paleontology and archeology .

Through a longstanding commitment in 1981, he succeeded in abandoning the plan to build a large Munich waste dump in a valley between the towns of Hörenzhausen and Günzenhausen .

In order to restore the natural course of the river Amper , he negotiated for years with the landowners and persuaded them to sell. In addition, he obtained that the Bavarian Nature Conservation Fund, the District Assembly, the District Assembly and the Nature Conservation Associations made DM 1.5 million available to the community to purchase the meadows. The community of Haimhausen was able to acquire 61 hectares of Amperwiesen and convert it into a nature reserve in 1996. In the renatured floodplains, long-forgotten plants have a chance to settle again.

Moosauer's greatest success as a hobby archaeologist was in 1994 and in the years after the discovery of the remains of the Bronze Age fortifications of Bernstorf and the gold and amber finds there, although their authenticity was first publicly questioned in 2014 due to new analysis results. Together with Traudl Bachmeier, he discovered and researched the facility. The discovery and the subsequent excavations and explorations were essential for the establishment of the Bronze Age Bavaria Museum in 2014 in Kranzberg ( Freising district ), the establishment of which is based on Moosauer's years of efforts. The State Archaeological Collection has now commissioned several expert reports, including those from the Federal Institute for Materials Research , to check the authenticity of the finds. However, an anthology of scientific articles on the subject published in January 2017 could not dispel the suspicion of falsification.

Articles from 2017 published independently of the anthology come to the conclusion that both amber and gold finds cannot come from a Bronze Age context, but from a much more recent period.
