The people here had struggled a lot to continue the production activity of this brewery. Despite the fact it was financially viable the owner decided to close it and terminate its activities to sell the space on a profitable real estate market...
After a long strike, the workers propositions were finally all dismissed, and the Factory is waiting for its destruction, as its grand-sister of Adelshoffen.
Last, but not least, parts of the site have been registered as historic monument, to protect them from dismantle and metal theft.
Nowadays, visits are forbidden, cameras and security crew are surveying it, what is finally a very good thing to protect it. Hope it wouldn't be destroyed as Adelshoffen !
