Richter was born in Weimar. In the position of "fürstlich-sächsischer Landbaumeister" (court architect), he designed the oldest extant bridge in Weimar, the Sternbrücke (de), built from 1651 to 1654 crossing the Ilm river. It is part of the Park an der Ilm. He designed the Schloss in Weimar which was destroyed by fire in 1774.
