Live and act

Wieland was born in 1863 as the son of an entrepreneur. After attending the grammar school in Ulm and the Realgymnasium in Stuttgart as well as the ecole industrial cantonale in Lausanne and the mining academy in Clausthal , Wieland went into business.

Wieland began his industrial career when he became CEO of Wielandwerke AG in 1891 . Soon afterwards he became a partner in the company Wieland and Co. in Ulm and in 1901 in the Deutsche Delta-Metallgesellschaft in Düsseldorf . He later became a member of the supervisory board of Vereinigte Industrieunternehmungen AG , Vereinigte Aluminumwerke AG and Elektrowerke AG. He was also an honorary member of the Württemberg district association of German engineers and since 1920 was a member of the presidium of the Reich Association of German Industry . He received public honors through his appointment to the Privy Councilor of Commerce and Dr. Ing. E. H.

In his hometown of Ulm, Wieland was a member of the citizens' committee and the local council from 1890 to 1893. He first found a political forum in the National Liberal Party (NLP), which was organized in Württemberg as the German Party (DP), for which he was a member of the Württemberg 2nd Chamber from 1909 to 1918 .

After the November Revolution of 1918, Wieland, who now joined the German Democratic Party (DDP), became a member of the Constituent Assembly of Württemberg and the Weimar National Assembly . From 1920 he was a representative of constituency 31 (Württemberg) in the Reichstag , to which he belonged until May 1928. Wieland, considered close to the economy, made a name for himself in parliament above all as an energy politician. Within the main board of his party, Wieland headed the Reich Committee for Trade, Industry and Commerce.

At the end of the 1920s, Wieland withdrew into private life. He spent part of the last years of his life in Switzerland, where he died in 1949.
