Personal Life
Early Life
Christian Doppler was born in Salzburg, Austria on November 29, 1803. He was born into a family of stonemasons and was one of five children. Doppler's parents, Johann and Theresia Doppler, were skeptical of their son's ability to be a stonemason due to his poor health. They also questioned his ability to succeed academically. After some consultation and counseling it was decided that young Christian was to attend the Vienna Polytechnic Institute (now the Vienna Institute of Technology).
