Paul Brockardt (born January 8, 1882 in Coburg , † 1941 in Prague ) was a German architect and building contractor .

Live and act

Paul Brockardt was the first-born son of Bernhard Brockardt and his wife Sophie. After graduating from the Ernestinum Coburg grammar school , he studied at the Ducal Building Trade School in Coburg , which in 1903 resulted in the right to be employed in the royal Prussian civil service. After graduating, he was employed by the state administration as a government building supervisor ( trainee lawyer in public construction) and appointed government building master ( assessor ) in 1912 . In 1918 Brockardt opened an office in Aussig on the Elbe as an independent architect . From there he was active in many European countries and built over 500 houses as well as fountains and other functional buildings such as the Aussiger Johann -schicht-Bad .

Brockardt Block Coburg

From around 1931 he also worked in his parents 'company Brockardt Coburg and in 1934 worked out plans for a residential complex for the officers' families of the new Coburg garrison . The representative building of high structural quality and numerous, for the time unusual equipment details, was to be built on the company's own property on Kanonenweg, which later became Scharnhorststrasse 2-8 . Although approved by the city, the project was initially rejected by the government for Upper and Middle Franconia in Ansbach . Only in September 1935 was the building permit issued under pressure from the NSDAP , so that the residential complex could be occupied at the end of 1936. The building, soon to be called Brockardt Block , was included in the Bavarian List of Monuments in 1973.
