Henry H. Hohenschild (June 2, 1862 – February 3, 1928), also known as H.H. Hohenschild, was an architect based in Rolla, Missouri, USA. He was born in St. Louis, and educated in the city's public schools. Hohenschild moved to Rolla in 1881, where he established an architectural practice designing public and residential buildings. He was elected to the Missouri Senate in 1896. In 1899 was appointed State Architect by Governor Lon V. Stephens which involved the architect in designing several state buildings including some at the state penitentiary. In addition to 10 county courthouses, he designed several buildings for the School of Mines (now the Missouri University of Science and Technology), the State Mental Institution in Farmington (1901), the Tuberculosis Sanitarium in Mount Vernon, Missouri (1905), and the temporary state capitol building in Jefferson City in 1912. He died on February 3, 1928, in St. Louis from a heart condition.[1]: 18–19 [2]
