Life
Victor Tetens studied architecture at the Polytechnic School in Hanover and joined the Corps Slesvico-Holsatia here in the summer semester of 1859 . After graduating, he entered the Prussian civil service. As a district building inspector in Koblenz, he wrote a report on the hygienic conditions, especially in the area of Kastorstrasse, on behalf of the city in 1882. Several people died here of typhus in 1881. He then worked for the Royal Palace Construction Commission, where he initially rose to court building officer and deputy director. When Ernst von Ihne was appointed court architect in 1888 and, as a result of this appointment, the then director of the palace building commission, Reinhold Persius, asked for his dismissal, Tetens was appointed director of the palace building commission in the same year. In 1893 he was appointed Oberhofbaurat. He headed the royal palace building commission until his death in 1909.
