Einar Hirsch
Einar von Hirsch (5 June 1872 – 20 October 1938) was a Norwegian dentist and landowner.
He was born in Romedal as a son of director Johan Leuthäuser Hirsch (1843–1922) and his first wife Johanne P. Bolstad (1847–1930). In 1901 he married dean's daughter Elise Kjos Hansen.[1][2] Their son Trygve Hirsch was a well-known barrister and writer,[3] and another son Per von Hirsch a well-known figure during the occupation of Norway by Nazi Germany.[4]
Einar Hirsch graduated as an agronomist in 1896 and as an odontologist in 1904. He was a prolific writer in both agricultural and odontological periodicals. From 1915 to 1921 he edited the periodicals Norsk Tannlægeforenings Tidende and Munnpleien, also chairing the Norwegian Specialized Press Association.[1]
He was a grand proprietor, owning large farms in Lørenskog and Bærum.[1] He is best known for buying the farm Øvre Vold in 1910.[5] He soon started to parcel out lots, starting with the area around the farm around World War I.[6] In 1927 he put forward the idea of establishing Norway's first gallop horse racing track at Øvre Vold.[7] The plan was approved by the central government despite local protests, creating Øvrevoll Galoppbane.[8] Construction was carried through between 1930 and 1932.[9]
Also, in 1916 he bought Hamang from Ebbe Astrup.[10] He sold it to Wilhelm Bernhard Markussen already in the summer of 1917 for 155,000 kr.[11][12] Einar Hirsch died in October 1938.[13]
