Franz Friedrich Heinrich Wilhelm Carl Haniel (born September 15, 1842 in Ruhrort ; † June 16, 1916 in Forsthaus Hülloch ) was a German entrepreneur in the mining industry , the son of Hugo Haniel and a grandson of Franz Haniel .

Life

Haniel was a co-founder of the company Haniel et Lueg in Düsseldorf , a member of the supervisory board of the coal syndicate and carried the title of a secret commercial council . From 1872 Haniel was a member of the Corps Saxonia at his place of study in Hanover. Out of this connection, he determined the colors of the Corps Saxonia (green-white-black) as the flag of his Rhine shipping line, which remained unchanged until the acquisition of the shipping company by the Imperial Logistics Group in 2003.

In 1872, together with his uncle Louis Haniel and Heinrich Lueg, he founded the “Haniel & Lueg” machine factory in Grafenberg on Grafenberger Allee. Around 1890, still with the address Königsallee , Haniel had a two-story house built on a corner plot of land at Hofgartenstrasse 1 in Düsseldorf in 1892 based on designs by the Berlin architects Heinrich Kayser and Karl von Großheim . The narrower facade of the building faced Hofgartenstrasse, the wider one faced the Hofgarten on Goltsteinstrasse . In the Düsseldorf address book, Haniel is recorded as a resident for the years 1893, 1895, 1899 and 1900. The building was bombed in an air raid on April 23, 1944 and was demolished along with the entire Hofgartenstrasse. Instead of Hofgartenstrasse, there was the millipede that was demolished in 2013 and is now the newly designed area of ​​the Kö-Bogen .

Franz Haniel founded the Rheinische Bahngesellschaft in 1896 together with Heinrich Lueg , Friedrich Vohwinkel and August Bagel , which financed the construction of the first Oberkassel bridge . The break with Emil Kirdorf's coal syndicate occurred in 1905. According to an article in the Berliner Tageblatt, Haniel “committed the great 'sin' of approving the demands of the workers in his mine 'Rheinpreussen' when the Ruhr workers' strike broke out, and he is even said to have promised his workers not to deliver coal to the strike area, although according to the provisions of the syndicate contract the syndicate management alone had the right to dispose of the coal. "

After leaving the coal syndicate, Haniel was a member of the Prussian mansion from 1905 until his death in 1916 . Haniel, after whom the Franz Haniel colliery was named, which was shut down in 2018 as part of the Prosper-Haniel mine , was buried in the Düsseldorf North Cemetery .
