Friedrich Karl Ewald Beblo (10 November 1872, in Breslau – 11 April 1947, in Munich) was a German city planner, architect and painter.
Fritz was a class comrade of actor Friedrich Kayssler and author and poet Christian Morgenstern at the Maria-Magdalenen-Gymnasium in Breslau, where his father also taught.
Like the future actor, Friedrich Kayssler, Beblo maintained lifelong contact with his school friend from Breslau, Morgenstern.
In 1896, Beblo continued his studies at the Technischen Hochschule Karlsruhe with Professor Carl Schäfer, a renowned architect.
After finishing his studies in architecture, Beblo first went to the fortress Festung Ehrenbreitstein near Koblenz as the royal Prussian site manager and then to Traben-Trarbach on the Moselle River.
After passing the examination for Baumeister (master builder) in 1902, he took over supervision of the building site for the new secondary school in Traben-Trarbach and built an adult education center (Volkshochschule) according to his own designs.
Fritz Beblo began as a city building inspector in Strasbourg, which had belonged to the state of Elsass-Lothringen (Alsace-Lorraine) in the German Empire since 1871.
Beblo was co-responsible for drawing up the Dante Stadium, for the popular family swimming pool Maria Einsiedel, and for the Technische Rathaus (Technical City Hall).
