Heinrich Gerber (architect)

Between 1853 and 1857, he did work at St. Martin's Church [de] in Linden, and was site manager for the railway station at Hannoversch-Münden.

This included a project in Paris, with Jacques Ignace Hittorff, involving a redesign of the Place de la Concorde.

There, in addition to numerous civil engineering works, he helped create a new provincial map and designed a theatre for Ouro Preto.

Upon returning to Germany, he initially worked for the Royal Hanoverian State Railways, but the largest part of his career, from 1896 to 1901, was spent as a construction officer with the Building Department in Göttingen.

His most notable buildings include:[3] a villa for the lawyer, Carl Ludwig von Bar, who served on the Hague Tribunal; the cemetery chapel at the Stadtfriedhof in Göttingen; cadet housing for the Corps Saxonia Göttingen [de]; and an observation tower known as the Bismarckturm [de].
