Life

Youth and education

She attended lyceum up to middle school. Only after the death of her father did she make up for the three years of high school in Berlin in private lessons within a year. She went to Freiburg to study. From there she moved to Munich. Here she studied and completed her doctorate in 1910 with the economist Lujo Brentano with the now historical standard work "About factory work of married women". Along with Marie Bernays, she was one of the first women to publish in the prestigious series on economic issues of the "Verein für Socialpolitk". The latter published: “Selection and adjustment of the workforce in closed large-scale industry” (1910), followed by Rosa Kempf : “The life of young factory girls in Munich” (1911), Elisabeth Hell : “Young tailors in Munich” (1911) and Käthe Mende : “Munich young women shopkeepers at home and at work” (1912).

Housing inspector in Halle

As the second woman in the German Reich, she became a full-time housing inspector in Halle . This position had just been created because more children survived and the families grew larger due to the improved hygienic conditions. It was supposed to determine in detail what the living conditions of the families were like. Her boss, the mayor of Halle, sent her to the Second German Housing Congress in Leipzig in 1911, which dealt with urban living conditions in view of the sharp increase in the resident population in Leipzig. The congress was organized by Karl von Mangoldt , her future husband, whom she married in 1912. Since the current civil service law does not allow married women to work, Mangoldt had to leave her position.

Activity as a librarian

In addition to having a family with three children and a household, she began to work again: From 1921 to 1924 in the editorial office of Social Practice and People's Welfare Care. In 1926 she joined the office of the German Association for Housing Reform, where she devoted herself to the reorganization and maintenance of the book inventory and expanded it into an extensive special library for housing. In the years 1933 to 1935, the first three volumes of the bibliography on housing and settlement were published. This bibliography compiled by Rose von Mangoldt, which was published by the German Association for Housing Reform, was available in printed form until 1941. In addition, she edited various compilations, including the “Concise Dictionary of Housing” and the “Dictionary of Housing and Settlement Management” and was a member of the collective work “Urban Development and Housing of the World”. She also wrote articles for the magazine “Die Wohnung” and other specialist journals.

The existing material in the library came towards the end of the war. T. to Liegnitz and partly to Westphalia. After the end of the war, the Berlin City Administration wrote to the International Committee for Building and Housing on April 15, 1946, requesting that the library be transferred from Liegnitz to Berlin. This was not complied with and the library has since been considered lost.
