Zwirner, E«nst Fhiedruh, architect, b. at Jak-
obswalde in Sile-sia in 1S02; d. at Cologne in 1861.
He studied at Breslau and Berlin, and worked at the
latter place under Schinkel. From 1833 he was the
architect of the cathedral at Cologne. At Cologne
he was next to Statz the most important practical
representative of Gothic architecture. P'rom the time
it was rcrognizrd that the completion of the great
cathedral at Cologne was the task which would bring
the highest honour to thoGot hie sty If,, Schinkel's school
was drawn on for men to carry out the work, first
Ahlert, and after his death, Zwirner being called to
Cologne. Before long more confidence was placed in
Zwirner than had been given to his predecessor, be-
cause he showed a more perceptive grasp of the work
of the old masters. After the work of restoration was
finished, he presented his plans for the completion of
the structure in 1841 to King Frederick William IV;
upon the approval of the plans the work began the
next year. However, neither Zwirner, nor his able
successor Voigtel, who completed the work, succeeded
in uniting the charm of free play of imagination with
technical correctness and architectural sequence.
There is no doubt that Zwirner was one of the finest
judges of the medieval style. What he had learned
in his work on the cathedral of Cologne he used in
designs of his own with the same fine skill and energy.
His best building is probably the church of St. Apol-
linaris at Remagen, to which, however, the same
objection of monotony of plan has been made. He
also built a church at ISIulheim on the Rhine, and one
at Elberfeld. He restored the castle of Argcnfels on
the Rhine, built the castle of Herdringen in the style
of the ancient fortress castles on the Rhine for Count
von Fiirstenberg, and also the castle of Moyland near
Cleves. His last work w^as the synagogue at Cologne.
