Re: Researching Gerhard Fieseler Werke III in Kassel
I was in Mannheim about 5 years before you were in Kassel. I am sure of one source for your photo needs but you will probably have to deal with the U.S. National Archives in WashDC to get them. The U.S. Strategic Bombing Survey would have completed a comprehensive study of the Fieseler plant at:
Kassel-Waldau (GER) (51 17 00 N – 09 30 00 E)
General: Einsatzhafen I in Hesse 5 km SSE of Kassel. Also an Industriehafen of the Fieseler aircraft firm. Grass surface.
The study would have been accompanied by numerous photos, some of which probably included the wartime assembly line there. If you e-mail or call the Photographic Division of the National Archives they should be able to help. Other sources would be in Germany, e.g. the Bundesarchiv in Koblenz, the Kassel Stadtarchiv, the Hessische Stattsarchiv, etc.
