History


The church in Wildau

As a location for industry, mechanical engineering that put Wildau on the map. In 1897 the Schwartzkopff company established a locomotive works here, and built a works' housing complex that is a listed building today. In the Second World War the works were involved in armaments production, and was then demolished after the war. It was from the remains of these works that the East German state enterprise in heavy engineering was founded. This in turn had to restructure completely after 1989.
