Franz Xaver von Wegele
Franz Xaver von Wegele (29 October 1823, in Landsberg am Lech – 17 October 1897, in Würzburg) was a German historian, largely known for his studies on the history of Thuringia, Franconia and the University of Würzburg.
He studied history at the universities of Munich and Heidelberg, where his influences were Friedrich Christoph Schlosser, Ludwig Häusser and Georg Gottfried Gervinus. In 1849 he obtained his habilitation at the University of Jena, and two years later became an associate professor of history. In 1857 he relocated to the University of Würzburg as a full professor. In 1863 he was named university rector.[1][2]
