In Hamburg, Karl Wiebel was initially "Professor of Physics and Mathematics". He then changed the subject combination to "Professor of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry" and later the order to "Professor of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics and finally to "Professor of Physics and Chemistry".
He built up the Chemical Laboratory of the Akademisches Gymnasium, which was spun off as an independent Chemical State Laboratory in 1878.
Karl Wiebel was an honorary citizen of Wertheim. A street was also named after him there (see: Fränkische Nachrichten, July 2, 1998).
Wiebelstraße in Hamburg-Eidelstedt also bears his name.
