Abstract

Der Markgräflich Baden-Badische Hofbaumeister und Bauinspektor Franz Ignaz Krohmer wirkte in der 2. Hälfte des 18. Jahrhunderts innerhalb des Gebiets seiner Herrschaft in nahezu jeder Ortschaft. Einen Schwerpunkt seiner Tätigkeit bilden die zahlreichen Landkirchen, die hauptsächlich im heutigen Landkreis Rastatt zu finden sind. Doch auch der Ausbau der Rastatter Residenz durch das Hoftheater und andere herrschaftliche Bauaufgaben gehörten in den Bereich des begabten Zeichners und Balthasar-Neumann-Schülers. Seine Bauwerke und Pläne stellen ein Werk von regionaler Bedeutung für die Architekturgeschichte des Spätbarocks und des frühen Klassizismus im deutschen Südwesten dar, das verdient bewahrt zu werden.

Translation of abstract (English)

The court-architect of the margraves of Baden-Baden Franz Ignaz Krohmer was active in the second part of the eighteenth century in nearly all communities of the region of the court. A main point of his activities are the rural churches which can be found in the actual rural district of Rastatt as a city in the southwest of Germany. But his function as a court-architect included also the completion of the residence in Rastatt by a court theatre and other functions. The pupil of the legendary baroque architect Balthasar Neumann was also a talented drawer, and his buildings and plans are important documents for the history of architecture in the southwest of Germany durant the periods of late baroque and early classicism.
