Friedrich Windischmann
Edit ProfileCareer
After receiving the doctorate in theology at Munich, 2 January, 1836, he was ordained priest on the following 13 March. Seven months later he became vicar of the cathedral and secretary of Archbishop Gebsattel of Munich. In 1838 he was professor-extraordinary of canon law and New Testament exegesis at Freising, but resigned when appointed canon of the cathedral in 1839.
He accompanied Archbishop Reisach to the episcopal conference at Würzburg in 1848, and was with him in Rome, when the dogma of the Immaculate Conception was defined in 1854.
When Reisach was created cardinal and took up his residence in Rome, Windischmann became a simple Canon on 27 August 1856. His defence of the papal and ecclesiastical rights against the frequent encroachments of the State often brought him in conflict with the civil authorities.
He was very well-versed in the Armenian and Old Persian languages, and in the various Sanskrit dialects.
