Theodor Reichmann

Born in Rostock, the son of a lawyer, Albert Reichmann began a commercial apprenticeship in Berlin at his parents' request, but soon devoted himself exclusively to his musical education.

Reichmann made his debut at the Stadttheater Magdeburg as Ottokar in Carl Maria von Weber's Freischütz in 1869.

Already for a long time suffering from a heart condition, Reichmann died on 22 May 1903 - the 90th birthday of Richard Wagner – in Sanatorium Marbach in Bodensee following a stroke.

[5] Reichmann was buried in Berlin at the cemetery in front of the Hallesches Tor.

In the preserved lattice tomb there is a multi-level funerary monument made of black granite, on which the marble sculpture of a mourner is leaning, created around 1904 in the stonemason workshop of Wilhelm Sipperling.
