The obligatory educational trip

Before starting his professional life, Willibald Feuerlein went on a classic educational journey together with his twin brother, the Wolfschlugen pastor Gustav Feuerlein . He followed the practice of the educated classes of his time, in aristocratic circles so-called Grand Tour .

The twin brothers undertook the trip accompanied by their older brother Carl Feuerlein (* 1770; † 1808) and their brother-in-law Panagiot Wergo (* 1767; † 1843). The journey took place in the summer of 1805 and led via Salzburg to Vienna and from there via Graz to Trieste . The ship went to Venice when the sea was stormy . The return journey was via Padua , Vicenza , Verona and through Tyrol back to Württemberg. The trip was influenced by the troop movements that could be observed in the run-up to the battles of the Third Coalition War .

Law firm in Stuttgart - Appointment as chief justice procurator

Willibald Feuerlein established himself as a notary in Stuttgart in 1807 . In 1817 he was appointed chief justice procurator at the court in Tübingen. From 1815 to 1819 Willibald Feuerlein Göppingen was a member of the Göppingen assembly and in 1817 he voted against the adoption of the royal draft constitution. In 1818, Feuerlein became legal advisor at the University of Tübingen. From 1819 to 1843 he was a member of the Second Chamber in the Württemberg state parliament for changing constituencies. In 1820 he was appointed city scholar of Stuttgart by King Wilhelm I (taking office on November 1, 1820) and on March 1, 1822, he was the first in the ranks of Stuttgart city leaders to receive the honorary title of mayor .

Urban development of Stuttgart

At the beginning of Feuerlein's tenure, Stuttgart had a little over 20,000 inhabitants. During his years as Lord Mayor, he was able to accompany Wilhelm I on important building projects.

During Feuerlein's tenure, the construction of Rosenstein Castle began. This was followed by the construction of the Kursaal in Cannstatt in 1825 and the construction and design of Wilhelmsplatz in 1827, followed by the opening of the Katharinenhospital and in 1831 the opening of the Neue Weinsteige according to Etzel's plans .

The state elections and Feuerlein’s resignation

In the state elections in 1832, Feuerlein clearly lost to Ludwig Uhland in the Stuttgart constituency . Because of this defeat, he resigned from his office as town school leader on January 1, 1833, although in 1832 he had succeeded in obtaining another member of parliament in the Künzelsau constituency .

The resignation of Feuerlein shows that at that time the king and the state parliament were overpowering and that local politics of their own was unthinkable without sufficient support at the state political level. From January 15, 1836, Feuerlein was a judge at the Royal Württemberg Upper Tribunal in Stuttgart. In 1841, Feuerlein became a member of the Württemberg State Court.
