ANDLAU (Ändlaw), Heinrich Bernardus. - Catholic politician and publicist, b. at Freiburg im Breisgau on 20 Aug. 1802, d. there on 3 March 1871. From an old and influential family, in his youth he came under the influence of the great bishop Johann M. Sailer. He was several times a deputy in the upper chamber of Baden, where from 1837, against the interference of the paternalistic state of Febronian tradition, he claimed the autonomy of the ecclesiastical hierarchy and the free development of Catholic institutions, especially of the school. From the social point of view he was a conservative. He displayed intense activity in organizing Catholic societies throughout Germany, promoting the general assemblies of Catholics (Katholikentage), of which he was several times president. He collaborated actively with the Catholic press; in 1869, with others, he founded the Katholische Volkspartei in Baden. Most significant writings: Über die Stiftungen im Grossbagt. Baden (1845); Offenes Sendschreiben an Hirscher (1850); Der Aufruhr und Umsturz in Baden (1850 ff.); Die bad. Wirren im Lichte der Landesverfassung (1865), as well as the memoirs entitled Gedanken meiner Musse (1859-1861), etc.
