Gaul, Architect }} Hermann J. Gaul (1869–1949) was an American architect of German descent, who designed a number of Catholic churches, schools, convents and rectories in Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, and elsewhere. Personal lifeBorn in Cologne, Germany in 1869 Gaul came to the U.S. at the turn of the 20th century. He settled in Chicago, Illinois and, after apprenticing for a time with noted Chicago architect Louis Sullivan, established an architectural firm under his own name in 1902. During his long and distinguished career he designed many landmark buildings for Roman Catholic clients throughout the Midwest. Gaul’s son Michael F. Gaul (1913-1996) joined his father’s firm, now known as Hermann J. Gaul and Son, in the early 1930s and carried on the practice after his father’s retirement in 1948.[1] Several of Gaul’s buildings have been placed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
