Life

Martin Kaspari was born in Göttingen in 1940 and grew up in Hohengandern as the son of the local country doctor. After elementary school, he attended the Episcopal Boys' College in the district town of Heiligenstadt as a boarding school student and graduated from high school in 1958.

The educational sanctions against members of the bourgeois intelligentsia in the Ulbricht era initially prevented him from studying medicine. He then undertook to work for a year on the large construction site of the Rappbode dam in the Harz Mountains, where he was not needed and signed off for the large construction site Schwarze Pump . This voluntary service enabled him to start studying medicine at the Friedrich Schiller University in Jena in 1959 , which he successfully completed in 1965. For his professional specialization, he then completed a four-year training as a specialist in skin diseases, he earned his doctorate in 1966 and then found his position as a doctor at the polyclinic in Eisenach , where he worked until June 5, 1990.

Since 1995 Kaspari has been a member of the KDB Sigfridia zu Bonn in the ring of Catholic German fraternities . He was involved in the organization and implementation of the Wartburg Talks .

Martin Kaspari is Catholic, married and has two adult children. He lives in Eisenach.

Career

Kaspari practiced as a dermatologist in Eisenach from 1965 to 1990 . Since the 1980s he was honorary district chairman of the German Red Cross (DRK) in Eisenach.

When the Eisenach CDU won the last local election in the GDR on May 6, 1990 in the Eisenach district , it suddenly lacked a suitable candidate for the district administration, because the intended persons ( Manfred Heise and others) decided after this election for other party-political tasks some hoped to be able to take even better positions in the first all-German federal election on December 2, 1990 . Kaspari once commented on this tactic with the ironic words “I was only the seventh choice! ... ".

The sudden challenge of becoming the leading local politician in the Eisenach district also meant the end of his usual private and professional life for Kaspari, but he took on this task and was elected district administrator by the Eisenach district council in 1990. In this function he built up the administration of the district after the political change in the GDR . When the Eisenach district and the neighboring Bad Salzungen district merged to form the Wartburg district during the district reform in Thuringia in 1994, according to the plans of the Thuringian state government , Kaspari was elected district administrator of this newly formed district. He held this post until June 30, 2006. In the local elections in 2006, he did not run for reasons of age; His successor was the CDU politician Reinhard Krebs .

Until 2008 Kaspari was President of the Thuringia Regional Association of the DRK .
