Johannes studied philology and theology in Berlin and Breslau. Subsequently he became a pupil of Lepsius and Brugsch, and devoted himself to the study of Egyptian inscriptions.
Johannes Dümichen travelled widely in Egypt, and published his results in a number of important books. In 1872 he was chosen professor of Egyptology at Strassburg. The value of his work consists not only in the stores of material which he collected, but also in the success with which he dealt with many of the problems raised by the inscriptions.
Among his works are Bauurkunde des Tempels von Dendera (1865); Geographische Inschriften altagyptischer Denkmaler (4 vols. , 1865-1885); Altagyptische Kalenderinschriften (1866); Altagypt. Tempelinschriften (2 vols. , 1867); Historische Inschriften altagypt. Denkmaler (2 vols. , 1867-1869); Baugeschichte und Beschreibung des Denderatempels (Strassburg, 1877); Die Oasen der libyschen Wüste (1878); Die kalendarischen Opferfestlisten von Medinet-Habu(1881); Gesch. des alten Äegypten (1878-1883); Der Grabpalast des Patuamenap in der thebanischen Nekropolis (1884-1894).
Johannes explored the Nile Valley in 1862 and 1868. On the first expedition he conducted extensive research in Nubia and the Sudan and on his fourth trip to Egypt he studied the inscriptions of the largest private tomb in the Theban Necropolis. He presented the result of his expeditions in various publications. He was also the founder of the Institute of Egyptology in Strasbourg.
