He was a son of bailiff Johan Nicolai Klingenberg (1777–1865), and also the uncle of pianist Alf Klingenberg (1867-1944),[1] and the maternal grandfather[2] and paternal granduncle of Odd Sverressøn Klingenberg and Kaare Sverressøn Klingenberg.[3]
He worked in the country's capital Christiania. He organized the waterworks of the city in 1855, and had a national influence in this field. He became leader of the city fire department in 1861.[4] In the military, he held the rank of major.[3]
From 1860 to 1861 and 1872 to 1874 he was the chairman of the Norwegian Polytechnic Society.[5]
