Hermann Korb
Hermann Korb (1656, Niese (near Lügde) - 23 December 1735, Wolfenbüttel) was a German architect who worked mainly in the Principality of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel.〔
== Life ==
Little is known of his early life. It is generally believed that he started as a carpenter and was inspired to teach himself architecture during a trip to Italy with his employer, Duke Anton Ulrich. It has also been reported that he was unable to draw, leaving the details to his assistants. All of this has been disputed.
In 1689, he became the first Royal "Bauvogt" (Building Bailiff, or Inspector) in Wolfenbüttel then, in 1692, the "Bauverwalter" (Building Administrator), working in cooperation with the Landbaumeister (Master Builder) Johann Balthasar Lauterbach (1661-1694). Korb took over Lauterbach's duties after his death and completed many of his projects, which had languished because of his long illness. However, Korb wasn't officially promoted until 1704, when all of his work was being done from his own original designs.
Construction proceeded at a fast pace during his 40-year tenure. Many of his structures no longer exist because, following practices that were common at the time, they were cheaply built, with wood panels designed to imitate sandstone, and quickly fell into disrepair. He retired in 1734 (possibly suffering from senility) and died the following year.〔
