Life
Life
Born in Bonn, Mangner attended the Gymnasium Sedanstraße in the town of Barmen, which is now part of Wuppertal. He studied, among others, with Wilhelm Kreis in Düsseldorf. His architectural firm last ran a residential and office building in Barmen, built for himself according to his own plans. (An der Bergbahn 14). From there he also planned, among other things, residential buildings for Bonn's new citizens from the Ruhr area. In today's Wuppertal, Mangner was entrusted with the construction of settlements in housing cooperatives, including the Siedlung Frankenplatz (1912–1927). From 1920 onwards, he can be traced for a few years with an office in Bonn (Münsterplatz 19). In 1923 Mangner won an architectural design competition for the new construction of the Wuppertal Schwebebahnstation Hauptbahnhof (today Hauptbahnhof) as part of a redesign of Brausenwerther Platz and Döppersberger Brücke and was also commissioned with the implementation. He was a member of the Bund Deutscher Architekten, within which he was appointed chairman and later honorary chairman of the Wuppertal district group and the Düsseldorf district group, as well as for a time of the Deutscher Werkbund. Mangner also founded the Wuppertal section of the Rheinischer Verein für Denkmalpflege und Landschaftsschutz and became its first chairman. In 1925, he was appointed to the Deutsche Akademie für Städtebau und Landesplanung, for which he last served as secretary until 1955 and which appointed him an honorary member in 1960. Mangner died in Wuppertal at the age of 76. and was buried at the Poppelsdorfer Friedhof in Bonn.
