Oscar penny

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oscar [Oskar] Pfennig (born August 22, 1880 in Hamburg , † 1963 in Stuttgart ) was a German architect .

After a practical activity in the building trade in Lübeck , he studied architecture from 1900 to 1903 at the Technical University of Stuttgart under Theodor Fischer , Heinrich Jassoy and Gustav Halmhuber . From 1904 to 1908 he worked in Theodor Fischer's private studio, then from 1908 to 1910 in the architectural office of Ludwig Eisenlohr and Carl Weigle . He married Eisenlohr's daughter Margarete and in 1910, when Eisenlohr and Weigle separated, he became his father-in-law's new partner.

The joint office operated under the name "Eisenlohr und Pfennig". Eisenlohr's son Ludwig Eisenlohr junior joined this office in 1924 , who, together with Pfennig, caught up with modern trends in architecture (cf. Neues Bauen ) and won numerous competitions.
