Emil Flaminius

Emil Karl Alexander Flaminius (1807, Küstrin - 7 October 1893, Berlin) was a Prussian architect and master builder.

For twenty years he worked on the Oder and Warthe dykes in his home town.

In 1828 he moved to Berlin to study architecture at the Bauakademie, where he came into contact with Karl Friedrich Schinkel.

For example, aged only 21, he worked with Schinkel on repairing the Frankfurter Marienkirche after the collapse of its south tower - the project did not replace the south tower, but did produce one of the largest works of Brick Gothic.

[1] Between 1832 and 1836 he worked to erect a new home for the Bauakademie, using designs by Schinkel.
