Rolf Teichmüller
Rolf Teichmüller (born September 1, 1904 in Nordhausen ; † October 6, 1983 in Krefeld ) was a German geologist who dealt in particular with the geology of coal, often in collaboration with his wife Marlies Teichmüller .
Teichmüller received his doctorate in geology from the University of Göttingen in 1928 and completed his habilitation in 1937 at the University of Berlin . Until 1945 he was a geologist at the Reich Office for Soil Research in Berlin and after the Second World War a state geologist at the Geological State Office of North Rhine-Westphalia in Krefeld.
Before he turned to the geology of coal, he was a tectonist and dealt with, among other things, mountain structures in Italy (Apennines) and Spain.
He had been married to the geologist Marlies Teichmüller since 1938, who after his death established a foundation for the promotion of young scientists in both names.
In 1969 he and his wife received the Hans Stille Medal .
