Hannoversche Glashütte

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hannoversche Glashütte was a glassworks founded in the 19th century near Hanover in the (today's) district of Hainholz .

history

The Hannoversche Glashütte was founded in Hainholz in 1871 - the year the German Empire was founded - as the “North German stock corporation for glass manufacturing”. In addition to the types of bottles that were initially common at the time , light medicine , flacon and other hollow glasses were also produced, which for decades had been offered as a specialty of the company. The main business, however, was the production of all kinds of bottles for wines, liqueurs, sparkling wine and beer as well as fountain and mineral water.

In the meantime, another “Hannoversche Glashütte von Henning Boetius & Compagnie” had evidently been built in Hainholz in 1873, to which an access path was built around 1880, which was named Hüttenstrasse from 1892 onwards. The Glashüttenstraße in Vahrenwald , which was laid out in 1911, is also intended to be “after the existing glassworks” by “H. Boetius & Companie ”.

During the Weimar Republic in 1927, the Hannoversche Glashütte was equipped with state-of-the-art equipment, including a so-called “ Owens machine” that automatically inflated the glass into bottles. In the same year, the corporation with around 300 employees achieved a bottle production of around 8,000,000 bottles.

In 1929 the global economic crisis led to the closure of the company. The buildings were demolished in 1933.
