Otto Stäber
Otto Stäber (born April 23, 1854 in Bärenstein (Ore Mountains) , † after 1926) was a German architect and builder or contractor.
Otto Stäber founded a “Bureau for Architecture and Construction” in Chemnitz on January 1st, 1885 , which existed for over 40 years and during this time was significantly involved in the structural development of the city of Chemnitz into an industrial city. A large number of public and private works have been completed by his company over the decades.
The adaptation to new structural developments and building industry trends contributed to the success of his company, so over the years, in addition to building construction and civil engineering , concrete and reinforced concrete construction were also offered. A modern carpentry and glazing shop completed the overall operation. Ernst Geyer later joined the company as a co-owner and continued to run it after Stäber's death.
About the social commitment of the successful building contractor Otto Stäber has been handed down that he personally promoted and supported a toddler care facility (kindergarten / day care center) built by his company for decades.
