He began his architectural training in 1816 at the Collegium Carolinum (now the Braunschweig University of Technology)[2] and served an apprenticeship in the building department of the Duchy of Brunswick.
While there he became good friends with Carl Friedrich Zelter, leader of the Sing-Akademie zu Berlin.
