Life

Eberlin, who worked as a painter and surveyor , can be traced back to Heilbronn around 1580/1585. In 1580 he painted coats of arms in Kilian's Church and painted Isaac Habrecht's clock on the town hall . In 1582 he registered for the decoration of the new town hall buildings (reconstructions on Heilbronn town hall ).

In 1578, on the occasion of a legal dispute between the imperial city of Heilbronn and the Teutonic Order over hunting rights on the Nordberg , Eberlin prepared a map of the territory of the imperial city, which was found in the files of the Imperial Court of Justice . Illustrations from the Vogler prayer book of the Mayor of Heilbronn, Raimund Vogler, from 1576 are also attributed to him.
