Julius Arnade Suitcase Factory Görlitz-Moys

The name Arnade in Görlitz is permanently associated with the suitcase factory. Its roots go back to 1872. At that time, the 28-year-old company founder Julius Arnade founded a leather goods and suitcase factory. Ten employees were producing until a fire in 1876 on Peterstra;e in the old town. Julius Arnade used the misfortune to rebuild the company on a larger scale in Moys. The upswing of the founding years and the increasing possibilities for travel favored his business. Suitcases of all kinds, travel and school bags, backpacks – Arnade's product range becomes more and more extensive, the workforce counts 300 employees in the best times.  Source: netzwerk Industriekultur Görlitz
