Biography
In 1797 he entered the Academy of Arts as a pensioner, where he was repeatedly awarded the highest awards, including for the projects of the Medical and Surgical Academy and the quarantine infirmary.
On September 1, 1803, Charlemagne was released from the Academy of Arts with a first-degree certificate and a sword, but he did not stop studying at the Academy, and at his own request remained to work with her, "in order to gain great success not only as a student, but as an artist." Having then entered the public service, he ex officio was involved in the drafting and implementation of the construction of public buildings.
Charlemagne's activities were not limited to the St. Petersburg region. As a court architect, he often had to ride with members of the imperial family or on their instructions. For example, on August 6, 1825, immediately after his marriage, on the occasion of the resettlement of the imperial court in Taganrog, he and Babkin were sent there to prepare the necessary premises. He was an architect at the State Audit Office and a member of the General Presence in the Department of Projects and Estimates at the Main Directorate of Railways.
Repeatedly awarded orders, including the Order of St. Vladimir of the third degree.
He was buried in the Vyborg Catholic Cemetery [1] at the Church of St. Mary Magdalene .
