The son of a merchant, Loewe studied law in Vienna, but changed for the stage in 1878. After stays in Teplice and Olomouc he came to the Konzerthaus Berlin in 1881 and played at numerous other theatres in Germany and Austria. In 1895 he finally became an actor at the Burgtheater, k.k. Hof-Burgtheater in Vienna. To his mostly heroic roles belong the figures of Hermann Gessler, Gessler, Intrigue and Love, Musikus Miller, The Robbers, Karl Moor, Hamlet, and others.
He was buried in Döbling Cemetery in Vienna. His wife, the court opera singer Mathilde Loewe, is buried next to him.
