Simon Joel Arnheim (born April 1802 in Margonin ; † 13 July 1875 in Berlin ) founded the safe factory S. J. Arnheim in Berlin in 1833 as the first safe factory in Germany.
Life and family
Arnhem was of Jewish faith. He trained as a locksmith in Berlin, then as an art locksmith in Vienna and Paris. On May 27, 1834 he married Johanna Hannchen (1807–1864), the daughter of Kallmann Samuel Weyl. In 1852 Arnhem became a member of the Jewish Charitable Society of Friends .
His son Carl Arnheim (1851–1905) was born with Dorothea (also Doris or Dorottya and Sara). Pappenheim (1881–1942) married. The sons Siegmund and Felix Arnheim emerged from this marriage. After Carl Arnheim's death in 1905, his widow and sons became the owners of the company.
Simon Joel Arnheim died in Berlin in 1875 at the age of 73. He was buried in the Jewish cemetery at Schönhauser Allee . The grave is preserved.
Companies
The establishment of the company in 1833 is evidence of Arnhem's activities as a mechanic at Friedrichstrasse 39, from 1835 as J. S. Arnheim, mechanic and locksmith and from 1842 as mechanic and court art locksmith. With the year 1848 he is proven as a royal locksmith and manufacturer as well as the owner of the residential and commercial building at Rosenthaler Straße 36.
The company was located from around 1849 and documented for 1874 on the property of the tenement house built in 1781 for Hofrat L. Kartzig at Rosenthaler Strasse 36. and was relocated to Badstrasse shortly before the turn of the century . In 1860 around 120 employees produced around 300 safes a year. The company SJ Arnheim later merged with the company Ade Tresorbau to form Ade-Arnheim.
Later fate of the company and family
In 1938 the Jewish company was Aryanized and the properties were foreclosed. At Badstrasse 40/41, the cable factory frischisen & Co employed female forced laborers during the war. Was produced u. a. shielded antenna cables, earthing switches and individual parts for laying in antenna construction.
The remaining factory buildings on Badstrasse have been used as the Pankehallen sculpture workshop since 1985 .
The daughter-in-law Dorothea Arnheim was deported from the house at Schwäbische Strasse 7 to Theresienstadt on September 23, 1942 and died there on November 1, 1942.
Arnhem in contemporary idiom
In the novel Mathilde Möhring , which was last revised by Theodor Fontane in the spring of 1896, the company is synonymous with safes with the names "Arnheimische Schränke" and "Arnheimische Spinde" .
The expression Arnheimische Schränke can also be found in Carl von Gersdorff's letter of December 10, 1875 to Friedrich Nietzsche .
