2.2.3.    Briquette Plant 'Carl'

The briquette plant 'Brikettfabrik Carl' is an other example for the ignorance of the German authorities. When I took the following photographs, the excavators were already demolishing the beautiful buildings. The plant was still complete with all it's machinery inside, including steam-driven briquette presses and drying equipment. The official statements praise the 'innovative concept' of the factory's 'reuse', ignoring the fact, that nobody will ever be able to understand the process of briquette production after the 'conversion', which will just leave a few unrelated fragments of the plant.
