Well house of the former CF Leonhardt Söhne paper mill Unity Street
(map) 		around 1910 (fountain house) last component of a formerly extensive production facility that was significant for the city's history.

The well house, built around 1905, is the last remaining structure of an originally huge production facility, which was of great importance for the development of Crossen as the largest employer in the area. At the same time, it was one of the most important industrial companies in Zwickau and the surrounding area.

Factory history: The Crossen pulp works, which emerged from the Leonhardt Söhne paper factory founded in 1895, is an important mill location with a history that goes back to the 16th century. The paper mill of the papermaker Abraham Mode, which was mentioned as early as 1677 and emerged from a grinding mill, determined the economic development of Crossen for many decades and thus made this place a center of paper production and the later paper and pulp industry. According to an investigation by the Leipzig Paper Museum, it is suspected that Johann Sebastian Bach Crossener used paper for his music manuscripts because of its good quality.

Previously dismantled parts of the plant that were part of the list of monuments until the demolition: 1. Acid tower: an important technological structure for the so-called "cooking acid" production (required for cellulose processing), which towers above the site and is obtained from various raw materials and mainly by burning sulfur becomes. Reinforced concrete tower, heavily attacked and corroded building structure as a result of the sulfur and acid load (contamination), already gutted and planned for demolition, probably unique for Germany, in case of non-maintenance of the building documentation is absolutely necessary, demolition in 2008

2nd power station: north of the building complex leading through the Mühlgraben, built in 1913 and rebuilt in later years, engine room with wooden roof and steel trusses, skylights, head building with tower-like elevation at the machine house (probably flat-bottom container in the sense of a water tower), demolished in 1996

3. So-called paper finishing or bars along the street of the unit: One or two-storey bar with 23 axes that is elaborately designed in terms of industrial architecture and characterizes the street scene, pilaster strips, twin windows with segmented arches, central emphasis by curved oriels with spherical crowning and triple windows, frieze between the floors, on the ground floor already concrete window, demolished 2002, 4th water tower: earlier free-standing, later integrated into the building complex by closing the space or by structural extensions in a westerly direction and only slightly protruding from it, brick construction, octagonal tower head, stair frieze in the upper area, round window (oculi ), presumably cylinder container with flat bottom, demolished in 1996,

5. Chimney: round, approx. 90 m high, demolition,

6. Gatehouse: demolished in 2002,

7. Mühlgraben: a relatively wide ditch, leading through the site from west to northeast, connected to the Zwickauer Mulde weir in the west , hydropower is not used in the pulp mill area (no turbine chamber), the ditch should also be used from the point of view of later hydropower use remain. Eliminated in 1996.

The only remaining structure of the industrial plant: Well house: small building with a sawtooth frieze, arched window, door with arched roof, gable roof covered with slate, located at the northern end of the courtyard at the entrance to the street of Liberation, the last remaining structure in the entire area.

The monument value of this originally insignificant outbuilding of the industrial company results from its documentation value as the last evidence of this important section of the industrial history of Zwickau. (LfD / 2011.)

Administration building of the former Leonhardt paper mill, later administration of SDAG Wismut Unit 6 Street
(Map) 		around 1910 representative administration building, plastered building, in very good original condition, of architectural and architectural importance as well as local history.

Former administration building of the Leonhardt paper mill, later the SDAG Wismut in Crossen, built around 1920. The Leonhardt Söhne paper mill was founded in 1895. It is an important mill location, the history of which goes back to the 16th century. The paper mill of the papermaker Abraham Mode, which was mentioned as early as 1677 and emerged from a grinding mill, determined the economic development of Crossen for many decades and thus made this place a center of paper production and the later paper and pulp industry. According to an investigation by the Leipzig Paper Museum, it is suspected that Johann Sebastian Bach Crossener used paper for his music manuscripts because of its good quality.

One of the few structural evidence of Zwickau's industrial history is the two-storey or three-storey administration building, a broad plastered building, structured by plaster pilasters and various simple plaster and stucco decorations. The base is made of stone. The street facade is characterized by the four-axis central projection with a triangular gable crown. This gives the neoclassical building a castle-like character. The good original condition and the architectural quality of the design are impressive. The building, which originally belonged to a large factory complex, is currently vacant (2011), is one of the last remaining buildings of the former paper mill and the bismuth in Crossen. The monument value results from the great importance of the administration building in terms of local history, industrial history, architectural history and architectural art. (LfD / 2011.)

Residential and office building of the CF Leonhardt Söhne company with rear building, fencing, shared gate entrance with No. 17, porter's lodge and war memorial for employees in the courtyard Unit 19 Street
(Map) 		1898/99 (factory parts) Architecturally sophisticated building in clinker mixed construction of local history, industrial history and the townscape.

Presumably the former residential and office building of the CF Leonhardt paper mill, built in 1898/99. Originally a two-story building with an additional floor on the street side. Regular facade structuring, base and house corners as well as frieze ("German band") between the ground floor and upper floor made of bricks, the roofing of the arched or segmented arched windows are also made of bricks. In the courtyard, another building with a similar design is attached at a right angle. There is a representative gate entrance with two gates and a central gate with gate pillars made of Rochlitz porphyry tuff between the neighboring civil servants' residence and this building. The original iron gates have been preserved. In the courtyard there is a war memorial for employees of the former paper mill who fell during the First World War. It is a stele with a half-relief and the inscription: "THE DEAD EXHIBITIONS TO PEACE". Relief made of shell limestone, in the upper part of the middle stele a depiction of the paper factory, next to it workers mourn a dead person lying in the middle, one of the workers holds the shroud with which he is about to cover the dead person. The reverse of the relief depicts an apocalyptic horseman. Two beeches and a red oak flank the war memorial and they probably belonged to the complex of this memorial.

Despite vacancy and years of neglect (2011), the building complex impresses with its good original inventory. The typical architectural training and the quality of the craftsmanship of the building are the reasons for its historical value. As one of the few structural testimonies to the Leonhardt paper mill, the building complex is also of great importance in terms of local and industrial history. Together with the neighboring building, it has a significant impact on the street scene. (LfD / 2011.)

Simple villa, built in 1911 according to the inscription. Neo-Renaissance building, two-storey, plastered facade with porphyry-colored ashlar structure, irregular floor plan. In addition to the ashlar structure, the facade of the house is characterized by bay windows, entrance porches, winter garden, a clinker base and stepped gable.

On the street facade there is a stone slab with the inscription: "Built in 1911". The house is surrounded by a garden, from which remnants of the paving, pathways and terracing have been preserved as well as characteristic trees (e.g. corkscrew willow, hornbeam, ash, linden, lilac). In the lower part of the garden, a roundabout can be seen as well as the borders of crossing paths. The garden is bordered by a wrought iron fence from the time the villa was built.

Due to the exceptionally good original condition of the villa, garden and enclosure, the ensemble becomes a document of architecture and garden art of the early 20th century, which makes it important in terms of architectural and garden history. (LfD / 2011.)
