Curriculum Vitae
Josef Pichler attended grammar school in Klagenfurt and was accepted into the Karantania Klagenfurt secondary school fraternity in 1907 and founded the Gothia Klagenfurt secondary school fraternity (now Babenberg Klagenfurt) in 1909. After passing his A-levels with distinction, he went to Vienna to study medicine. Here he joined the Rudolfina student fraternity in 1910. After gaining his doctorate and working in a hospital, he set up as a general practitioner in Millstatt (district of Spittal a. d. Drau)/Carinthia. He also worked here as mayor from 1933/34.
After the Anschluss, he was arrested as a representative of the corporative state and deported to Dachau to a concentration camp, from where he was released on August 21, 1939.
After his release, he moved to Vienna-Penzing and opened a new medical practice here, where he worked until his retirement.
