history

Bodenstein Brewery

On August 8, 1823, the merchant and landowner August Leberecht Bodenstein (1798–1877) founded the A. Bodenstein brewery on his estate at Sieverstorstrasse 10 . The brewer was one of the first in Magdeburg to own a steam engine . A little later he was the first to purchase an ice machine in Magdeburg, which enabled regulated cooling operation in the brewery. The brewery achieved fame at the time with the introduction of lager beer , the so-called "Bavarian beer".

Bodenstein's brother-in-law Ernst Schneidewin (1820-1893) also worked in the brewery , who together with his new business partner Hermann Reichardt (1851-1928) founded the Buckau steam beer brewery Reichardt & Schneidewin in Buckau in 1864 . This existed until 1914 and then went to the Bodenstein AG brewery .

After August Bodenstein's death, his son Franz Bodenstein (1834–1885) continued the brewery from 1877 on. He had completed a degree in brewing in Bavaria and from around 1880 produced the "Bodensteiner Kulmbacher", popular in Magdeburg and the surrounding area. After the early death of Franz Bodenstein, the brewery was converted into a stock corporation in 1886 with a share capital of 1.2 million marks , the shares of which remained largely in the family's possession. The chairman of the supervisory board was Emil Grünwald (1841–1920), a son-in-law of the founder. From 1924 was renamed the brewery until the end of World War II as a brewery Bodenstein AG of Magdeburg .

In 1947 brewing was resumed as VEB Börde-Brauerei Magdeburg . From 1961, the Börde brewery became part of the newly founded VEB Vereinigte Brauereien Magdeburg as "Plant II" . The Diamant brewery in the New Neustadt became "Plant I", and the Sudenburger Brauhaus in Magdeburg's Sudenburg district became "Plant III" .

In 1991, shortly after the fall of the Wall , brewing operations on the site in Sieverstorstrasse were stopped. In 2006 a large part of the listed brewery building was demolished, only the brewing tower remained. Loft apartments were to be built in this from 2009, but this project had not yet been implemented until December 2016.

In the local register of monuments , the remains of the brewery's building are listed under registration number 094 81858 as a monument .
