He did his Ph.D. dissertation in 1927 at the Landessternwarte Heidelberg-Königstuhl (Königstuhl Observatory , near Heidelberg) at the University of Heidelberg [1].
At the time, the observatory at Heidelberg was a center for asteroid discovery by Max Wolf and Karl Reinmuth and others, and during his time there Bohrmann discovered a number of asteroids.
Bohrmann worked at the observatory from 1924 to 1969. The asteroid 1635 Bohrmann is named after him.
