Karl Friedrich Schinkel - Schinkel Karl Friedrich Schinkel (March 13, 1781 - October 9, 1841) was a German architect – possibly the definining architect of classicism in Prussia. Born in Neuruppin (Brandenburg), he lost his father at the age of six in Neuruppin's disastrous fire. He became a student of Friedrich Gilly (1772-1800) (the two became close friends) and his father, David Gilly, in Berlin. After studying in Italy, he returned to Berlin in 1805, which by then had been occupied by the troops of Napoleon I of France. After France's defeat, Schinkel oversaw the Prussian Building Commission.
