Biography

After completing his apprenticeship as a building draughtsman, Salvisberg attended the School of Architecture at the Technicum in Biel/Bienne in 1901, which he graduated from in 1904 with honors. Subsequently, he traveled through southern Germany to Munich. In Munich, Salvisberg attended courses at the Technical University of Munich, where August Thiersch, Friedrich von Thiersch, and Karl Hocheder were teaching. Presumably in 1905, he continued his journey to Karlsruhe. In addition to his employment at the architectural firm Curjel & Moser in Karlsruhe, he studied at the Technical University of Karlsruhe under the guidance of Carl Schäfer.[1]
