Cotton waste and plaster wool factory - Heinrich Schwarzenberger

In 1869, the brothers Wolf and Heinrich Schwarzenberger opened the company Schwarzenberger and Sons in Karlsruhe. In 1871 Heinrich Schwarzenberger moved the company, which had been taken over by his father Levi Schwarzenberger in Untergimpern, - trade with cotton (fabric) remnants to Heilbronn. In later times Adolf and Lothar Schwarzenberger were the owners of the company. Heinrich Schwarzenberger died in Heilbronn in 1893. His grave is located in the Jewish cemetery in Heilbronn. In the course of the expropriation of businesses with Jewish owners / proprietors by the National Socialist rulers, the Heinrich Schwarzenberger company also became a victim of the so-called "Aryanization".
