Karel Ferdinand Irmler

Karel Ferdinand Irmler (born 18 March 1650, date of death unknown) was a Moravian lawyer and the first professor of secular law at University of Olomouc.

Irmler was born in Olomouc to a family of a local physician.

[2] He became the first professor of law at the University of Olomouc, giving the first lecture at eight in the morning on 3 January 1679 to six students.

[3] The Moravian nobility forced the establishment of the Professorate of Law through a decree of Emperor Leopold I[2] despite the opposition of Jesuits, who were in charge of the University.

Irmler was paid 150 florins a year directly by the nobility and was obliged to teach only students immatriculated (enrolled) at the University.
