Albert Ludwig Grimm

19 July 1786 - 1 December 1872

Not to be confused with the - unrelated - Brothers Grimm!

Albert Ludwig Grimm (born 1786 in Schluchtern near Heilbronn, died 1872 in Baden-Baden) was a teacher, reformer educationist, politician, poet, was concerned with local history and geology and collected and published folk tales and legend.
He studied theology and philology in Tuebingen and Heidelberg and worked as a teacher, later as the head of the „Paedagogium“ in Weilheim (on Bergstraße). There he was elected mayor and deputy („M. P.“) of the Badischer Landtag. After the decease of his second wife and his own retiring he moved to Baden-Baden. There he was, among others, member of the governing board of an orphanage.
His first book of folk tales for children influenced the Brothers Grimm, despite mutual harsh criticism.

Albert Ludwig Grimm (geboren 1786 in Schluchtern bei Heilbronn, gestorben 1872 in Baden-Baden) war Lehrer, Reformpädagoge, Politiker, Dichter, Heimatkundler sowie Sammler und Herausgeber von Volksmärchen und Sagen.
Er studierte in Tübingen und Heidelberg Theologie und Philologie und arbeitete als Lehrer, später Leiter des Pädagogiums in Weilheim (an der Bergstraße). Dort wurde er auch zum Bürgermeister sowie zum Abgeordneten des Badischen Landtages gewählt. Nach dem Tod seiner zweiten Frau und seiner Pensionierung zog er nach Baden-Baden, wo er unter anderem dem Verwaltungsrat eines Waisenhauses angehörte.
Sein erstes Märchenbuch beeinflusste die Brüder Grimm, trotz gegenseitiger harscher Kritik.
