Life
Franz Ludwig Wind was born on November 14th, 1719. His father was Anton Wind from Reutte in Tyrol. Between 1735 and 1741 he probably completed as apprenticeship as a sculptor in Tyrol.
On August 21, 1749 he applied for the citizenship of his hometwon of Kaiserstuhl. In 1755, Wind made two urns for the garden wall and ten grimaces for the windows of the Meisen guild house in Zurch.
His main work was the decorative elements and grimaces of the Marschallhof in Kaiserstuhl from 1764, which were knocked off in the 19th century.
In 1773 he designed the facade of the provost's office in Zurzach. The portal of Schloss Schwarzwasserstelz from 1776 is also attributed to Wind.
