Friedrich Stuckenbrock

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Friedrich Stuckenbrock (also: Stukenbrock ; * around 1756; † April 17, 1809 in Linden near Hanover ) was a German entrepreneur and lime burner .

Life

Friedrich Stuckenbrock was born in the Electorate of Hanover at the time of the personal union between Great Britain and Hanover around the middle of the 18th century. As early as 1788, as one of the early entrepreneurs, he ran a lime kiln on Lindener Berg before industrialization . Stuckenbrock had a contract with a cooper called Kniep , who was active in Hanover , who “had to deliver the lime burner the tons required to pack the quick lime and also to slam them for the purpose of shipping.” Stuckenbrock was responsible for closing and slamming the barrels filled with quick lime the cooper to his journeyman Johann Egestorff , who in this way, during his frequent visits to the limestone quarry and the lime kiln, got to know both the production and the sales opportunities of lime.

Besides its lime kiln at Linden Berg, the Stuckenbrock operating as a tenant, he ergrub near the Deister , "at the foot of Broen " on which even Count Platen built, the so-called "Stuckenbrock's tunnels " to degrade a coal - seam . But because he apparently had just as little knowledge of mining as the "officers" he hired there, Stuckenbrock, who had got into debt for the mining and then could not keep his contracts, soon "went from prosperity to deepest poverty."

After Stuckenbrock had such great economic failures with his business, he was forced to sell his lime business to Johann Egestorff, who after his experience with Stuckenbrock's lime distillery on the Lindener Berge then laid the foundation for the industrialization of Linden. Stuckenbrock is therefore the direct predecessor of Johann Egestorff.

Friedrich Stuckenbrock died in 1809 during the so-called " French era ".

Stuckenbrockstrasse

At the time of the Weimar Republic , the traffic route leading from the street Am Lindener Berge to the later West Schnellweg , which also connected today's districts of Linden-Süd and Linden-Mitte , was named Stuckenbrockstraße. The road, which has not existed since 1985, led from Altenstraße to the water reservoir , but the name Stuckenbrockstraße was not officially repealed until 2005, according to a decision of the city council.

Stuckenbrockstieg

Also in 2005, the council decided to remember Friedrich Stuckenbrock in a different place instead of the former Stuckenbrockstrasse that was canceled. Therefore, the road connection leading west of the Egestorff monument to the street Am Hochbehälter was then named Stuckenbrockstieg.
