Life
Together with his brother Johannes , Krüger studied architecture from 1907 to 1911 at the Technical University of Charlottenburg and in Munich. In Berlin he obtained his diploma and later his state examination. From 1919 to 1921 he held public service tasks with the rank of government master builder.

After the Second World War , numerous restorations of the company's own buildings and those designed by others took place, but the brothers now mostly worked separately.
