Description
Deutsch: Betriebsgebäude der Grube "Einheit" im Harz. Elbingerode, Sachsen-Anhalt, Deutschland.
English: VEB Bergbau- und Huettenkombinat „Albert Funk“ Freiberg was based in the Sachsen mining town of Freiberg. Mining ceased in Freiberg in 1913, but was resurrected in the 1930s. After nationalisation in the post-1945 period, several firms were drawn together in the the Albert Funk Combine on 1 January 1961. (history <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/sludgeulper/3666316414/">here</a>) Mining ceased in 1969 but the combine diversified into many avenues of metallurgy, this Iron Pyrites mine "unity" in the Harz being one of them. After 1990, the Albert Funk combine became Saxonia AG Metallhütten- und Verarbeitungswerke before the expected rounds of rationalisation, asset stripping, closures etc. At its peak the Kombinat employed 20,000.<a href="http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Funk_(Politiker)" rel="nofollow">Albert Funk</a> was a communist miner , born in Zwickau, but active in the Ruhr, who was elected to the Reichstag in 1930. In 1933 he was imprisoned and died in the Prosper-Hospital in Recklinghausen from treatment received there, very early on in the NS regime, in April 1933. The stock bricks are cheap and functional.
