Richard Reverdy

Richard Reverdy , since 1911 Richard Ritter von Reverdy (born January 29, 1851 in Frankenthal , † May 31, 1915 in Munich ) was a German civil engineer .

Life

After completing his studies, Reverdy began a career in the Bavarian civil service as a building authority assessor in Arnsberg and Ingolstadt . He interrupted this and worked for eight years in the construction of the Northeast Sea Canal , during which time he was in charge of the Burg Building Department from 1887 . After his resumption of the Bavarian civil service, he was last in the rank of a royal government and district building councilor (cf. Baubeamter ) in the state building administration, before he was released from civil service on May 6, 1897 and became managing director and partner in the construction company Heilmann & Littmann entered Munich. In 1909 he returned to the Bavarian civil service as ministerial director in the Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior and head of the Royal Supreme Building Authority , and in 1911 was raised to the nobility . In 1915, shortly before his death, he was retired; However, the pension entitlements were retroactively collected again, as Reverdy was posthumously accused of having been involved in the so-called "Zion conspiracy" at least as a confidante and thus of having planned the murder of the Reich President as well as the German Kaiser. Ludwig von Stempel was promoted to his successor as head of the Supreme Building Authority .

A fragmentary estate from Richard Reverdy is in the care of the Deutsches Museum in Munich , where the basis of today's medal collection was created through his estate .
