Hermann von Liebenau

Hermann von Liebenau (3 October 1807 28 July 1874) was a Swiss historian.

He studied medicine in Germany and Austria until 1836, but after this published in historiography exclusively. He moved to Lucerne in 1837, where he remained until his death with the exception of an absence during 1855 to 1860 during which he was in Roman service as a physician.

He published some works on contemporary history, the Swiss Regeneration and the formation of Switzerland as a federal state but mostly focussed on the medieval history of the Old Swiss Confederacy.
