Life

Paul Krabler was the son of the businessman and later mining director Eduard Krabler (1813–1876) and his wife Agnes Gude (1817–1883). His brother was the mining engineer Emil Krabler . He went to school in Sagan , Iglau and Aachen . He studied medicine from 1858 to 1862 at the University of Greifswald. He then received his internal training from Hugo von Ziemssen until 1866 . He received his doctorate in 1862 and completed his habilitation in internal medicine and pediatrics in 1865 . From 1865, since 1869 regularly, Krabler gave lectures on pediatrics.

In 1867 Krabler settled as a general practitioner in Greifswald . After years of unsuccessful efforts to set up a children's clinic at the university, he founded a private outpatient clinic for children in rented rooms in Markt 21 in 1876 and financed it for ten years from his own resources. In 1878 he was appointed associate professor of paediatrics. In 1884 he took over the chairmanship of the Pomeranian Medical Association in the Stralsund administrative district , and later that of the Medical Association of the Pomeranian Province . For a time he was chairman of the citizenship council of the city of Greifswald.

On his initiative, the citizens of Greifswald Carl Witte († 1887) and Carl Holst († 1888) made bequests in 1885 for the establishment of a municipal or academic children's clinic. After the conditions of the legacy had been met in 1895, the university’s children's clinic was officially opened in 1896 in two houses on Hunnenstrasse.

In the same year Paul Krabler was appointed secret medical councilor. He was appointed First Director of the Greifswald University Children's Clinic and Polyclinic in 1898. Because of a serious chronic illness that he had contracted while working in 1874, Krabler was only able to perform his service to a limited extent.

Paul Krabler was buried in the old cemetery in Greifswald. He was later honored with a portrait in a leaded glass window in the children's clinic on Soldmannstrasse. In 2007 a memorial plaque was attached to his house at Gützkower Straße 92.
