Every carpenter at that time mastered all the possibilities of woodworking: so did the Nothelfer. They could carpenter, even carve altars and figures, and set them in gold, silver and paint. (churches in Owingen and Hödingen]. Some family members lived and worked and worked in Hedingen or Hödingen,like today the jubilarian Karl Nothelfer (this in 1975). His father, Karl Anton Nothelfer, as the eldest of seven siblings, was able to take over his father's carpentry business in Überlingen. Karl Anton Nothelfer, the eldest of seven siblings, was unable to take over his father's carpentry business in Überlingen. He instead moved to the industrial town of Singen with his young wife Rosalie, née Hanner, from the from Hohenzollern in 1896 and moved to the former Poststraße and founded his own carpenter's workshop. He had a highsense of quality and form and was already a member of the German Werkbund before 1914. Karl Nothelfer and his three siblings grew up in such air. After attending school and the secondary school in Singen, the young Karl learned the carpenter's trade in his father's workshop then moved on to the Badische Landes-Kunstschule in Karlsruhe, where he studied architecture. At that time the well-known furniture professor also worked there Fritz Spannagel, born in Freiburg in 1891, who settled in 1938 at Ittendorf Castle near Meers- burg (died 1957).
