The company that still exists today was founded in this factory over 100 years ago. The first extension was inaugurated after just two years. Another year later, the building had to be built again before the third building was built 9 years after the establishment of the building and 173 people were employed.
The company was already a leader back then and sold a large number of knitwear.
In the GDR, the factory was then converted into a VEB.
After the fall of the Wall, a grandson of the founder took over the business.
In 2000 this factory was given up.
The company relocated its headquarters in the mid-1950s.
The company still produces what is still owned by the founding family in Germany today.
The goods are sold in more than 38 countries.
The building of the former headquarters is unfortunately in ruins today and should be demolished, as it no longer seems possible to preserve it.
There is significant water damage in the building. As a result, moss, verdigris and mold have found their way into the building.
It's a gem and a time travel back in time.
Fabrics, bobbins with thread, sewing patterns, etc. are still around here everywhere.
The highlights are of course the various sewing machines, some of which come from the USA and have been in use there since 1962. Even today they still achieve high 3-digit amounts on sales.
