Re: Bodenwöhr Waldwerk - Mtt Bf 109 K-4 assembly lines 1944 - 1945

whereas I am in an early stage of research I think of doing a summary of it.

The "Historische Verein" publishes "Jahrbücher" annual reports of each year since a long time.
I visit the "Historisches Museum" tomorrow, know the director.

I took many pics today.

I also will visit Fotoshop whose owner is the late seventies.
They own many old pictures.

Wertheim had 45 only a few , I think 2 important, industry companies.
One was "Herdfabrik" left side of Tauber, a foundry for ovens.
One was Präzisonstechnik, removed from bombed Aschaffenburg.
But in Hasloch there was a "Pulvermühle", producing ammunition.
Kurtz metal works.

Quite interesting, there is the "Turm" , an impressive concrete Tower,
which was a flak platform. In the fifties a brewery added one level and it became a cafe.
The last years it was known as a Night Club/Cabaret.
At the airport there was an anti aircraft gun, also on Hasselberg.
From Turm the flak could protect the air above Wertheim Castle.
Eichelsteige is behind that.

I could organize a visit in the flak tower, since I know the owner.
