history

Max Bögl senior founded a bricklaying business in 1929. In 1955 Max Bögl junior joined the company and expanded it to include road and canal construction . The business was handed over to the sons Hans and Max Bögl in 1973. A year later, Max Bögl sen. the Bavarian Order of Merit , also in 1974 the Max Bögl Bauunternehmung GmbH & Co. KG was founded and the first branch was opened in Erlangen .

After company acquisitions had already been made, the first takeovers of East German companies took place in 1990 . The first foreign branch was established in 1994 in the Czech Republic . In 1997, individual areas were removed from the previous company as a whole and managed as an independent company within the group.

For the construction of the largest self-supporting hall in the world, the airship hall of Cargolifter AG in Brand near Berlin , the group of companies was awarded the European Steel Construction Prize 2000. In 2002 the group received the largest single order in the company's history for the construction of three subway stations in Amsterdam . The world's first commercially operated Transrapid line in Shanghai , with track girders from Max Bögl, was inaugurated in 2003. In 2005 the dam of the Leibis-Lichte dam in Thuringia was built. At the 2006 completed Nuremberg-Munich high-speed railway system "Slab Track Bögl" was for the first time ( track base plate ) is used. In 2007 the group of companies received a major order to convert the former space park into a shopping and adventure center “Waterfront” in Bremen from the Irish LNC Property Group. In 2007, the company and several executives, including Hans Bögl (senior), were sentenced to a fine of millions for bribing an IKEA employee. In 2008, the Deutsche Bahn AG visitor's Transrapid was brought from Munich Airport to the Bögl headquarters near Neumarkt in the Upper Palatinate for the symbolic price of 1 Euro plus transport.

On August 8, 2008, a bridge in Studénka that had been renovated by the Czech subsidiary BÖGL a KRÝSL ks collapsed. It crashed on the Eurocity railway line from Krakow to Prague . The EuroCity 102 Comenius raced into the rubble. Eight people died and 97 were injured. The Studenka railway accident was the worst in Czech history. The legal battle over responsibility for the bridge collapse ended in 2017 with the acquittal for lack of evidence of all defendants.

The lead in the acquisition work for the Transrapid was taken over in 2010, in the same year the company was awarded the contract for the expansion of the Miejski stadium (Wrocław) , the extension of the runway at Sibiu airport , the construction of the Arena Națională in Bucharest and the construction of the bypass expressway around Sibiu. The most powerful wind power plant in Bavaria was put into operation in 2011 on the Winnberg in the Neumarkt district in Upper Palatinate (total height 180 m, connected load 3.4 megawatts).

In March 2014 the groundbreaking ceremony laid the foundation stone for the new city quarter in "Neuer Markt" .

As of September 2014, the “Max Bögl” brand became the company name, and the job title “Construction company” was dropped. With the foundation idea, the shareholders Johann Bögl and Max Bögl would like to underline their long-term entrepreneurial commitment.

Max Bögl was entrusted with the construction of a new A7 motorway bridge. On June 15, 2016, a steel support structure collapsed on the new construction of the Schraudenbach viaduct (A7). A 38-year-old construction worker was killed and 14 workers were injured, some seriously. The construction workers were all employed by a subcontractor, said Max Bögl. The public prosecutor's office is investigating the cause.
