Live and act
The son of a weaver attended elementary school in his hometown Hartha from 1853 to 1861 before completing an apprenticeship as a weaver. His wanderings took him to England, France, Switzerland and the German states. From 1867 to 1869 he completed his military service and took part in the Franco-German War as a soldier with the 4th Company of the 107th Regiment . Until 1873 Grünberg worked again as a textile worker in his parents' business and after the death of his father took over the business, which he ran with his brother Friedrich Louis under the name "Gebrüder Grünberg, Webwaarenfabrik Hartha" until his own death.
Karl Grünberg was a participant in the workers' congress in Paris in 1889, at which the Second International was founded. From 1886 to 1897 Grünberg was elected city councilor for Hartha. In a by-election in 1896 in the 14th constituency of the city, he was elected as the successor to the late deputy Louis Seydler in the second chamber of the Saxon state parliament, to which he belonged until 1899. On October 22, 1902, he was elected to the German Reichstag in the 10th Saxon constituency for the deceased Adolf Lehr . He held this mandate for the remainder of the 10th and the entire 11th legislative period.
