Life

After attending the Katharineum , Klug studied theology, not until 1821 at the University of Jena , and later at the University of Tübingen . In 1824 he returned to Lübeck and became assistant preacher and candidate for the Ministry of Spirituality . In 1828 he succeeded Gottfried Andreas Sartori as pastor at the Andreas Church in Schlutup , and in 1840 chief pastor at the Jakobikirche in Lübeck itself. In 1848 he was elected to the citizenry . In 1868, Klug retired.

Smart was a social person who played an active role in a large number of organizations in the city: He was a member of the Society for the Promotion of Charitable Activities and its director from 1856 to 1859, head of v. Dorne's poor gang , member of the statistical association and administrator of the Lübeck Bible Society . As a Freemason , he was a member of the Loge zur Weltkugel and its master from the chair in the period from 1850 to 1867, as well as a member of many other associations. Membership in the Lübeck History and Archeology Association , of which he was chairman from 1849 to 1852, was particularly important to him . As a historian, he was also a recreational archaeologist with a special interest in prehistory and, together with the chief forester of the Johannis monastery Carl Hermann Haug (1811–1878), on the excavation and uncovering of the Pöppendorfer stone grave in the Waldhusener forest (1843) and in Lübeck-Blankensee ( 1857) involved. He was also commissioned to uncover the “stone camp” at the confluence of the Schwartau and the Trave near today's Teerhof Island . The stone warehouse then turned out to be the foundation of the church in Liubice , i.e. Old Lübeck.

The mayor of Lübeck Heinrich Klug was his son.
