Halloren
Coordinates: 51 ° 28 '56.6 " N , 11 ° 57' 34.6" O as Halloren be since the late Middle Ages, the salt workers in Halle Saale designated. Today the modern term Hallore is mainly used for the members of the Saltworkers Brotherhood in the Thale zu Halle .
history
The salt workers "boiled" the brine in stove pans to form salt . Their specialist knowledge secured them a respected position and gradually lucrative privileges such as catching birds and fishing, as well as selling brine eggs and smoked goods . In 1524 they joined together to form a brotherhood that still exists today. The members have (or had) peculiar customs and used the remains of a lost dialect. The number of Hallors was so significant that in 1545 they were able to provide over 600 armed men. You were entrusted with the service of its guns in the defense of the city. In earlier times, a strict, box-like isolation from the rest of the city's population was maintained.
The Royal Prussian Saltworks were built between 1719 and 1721 on the site of today's Technisches Halloren- und Salinemuseum, some of which are still there today. The extensions built around 1930 have also been preserved. Salt was extracted there until 1964 and the museum opened in 1967.

After their occupation, the hallors form into three groups.
- the Bornknechte
- the caster
- the loaders with the stoppers
The Bornknechte drew the salt water, the brine , from the well and carried it into the boiling houses, for which they received their wages not in money, but in brine, which was simmered for their account under the name of gerente. They formed a special guild with their own cash register and rules, but they didn't have to be Hallors by birth.
On the other hand, only those men of marital birth whose parents were on both sides of the Hallors were allowed to be included in the list of Wirker and Läder. These two classes had equal rights and privileges. Belonged to the agents
- the Sogger (boilers)
- the salt carriers
- the grudger (stoker)
- the servants employed in the preparation of salt
The countries that handled the loading of the salt also included the tampers who had to repair the wagons and protect the salt from getting wet.
As the real masters were the "boiler in the pan", which (during the 18th century) for the panner worried everything necessary and incurred and weekly abrechneten with them. Since the introduction of steam power , the shops and retirees have completely died. At the beginning of the 20th century, around 100 Halloren still worked in the salt works , the rest had turned to other professions. Some of their privileges had survived until this time, e. B. to be able to greet the sovereign at the New Year's reception, where they brought him and his family slag sausages, halloric salt and sole eggs as gifts.
