Ludowici Ziegelwerke, Historical brickworks in Jockgrim, Germany
The Ludowici Ziegelwerke facility spans across multiple buildings where industrial-scale roof tile production took place from 1883 to 1972.
Wilhelm Ludowici patented the Falzziegel Z1 roof tile in 1881, leading to the establishment of what became the largest brick manufacturer worldwide by 1897.
The company provided social benefits to its workers, including health insurance, housing, and a kindergarten for the Jockgrim community.
The factory location near railway connections and high-quality clay deposits enabled the production of up to 20 million bricks annually during peak operations.
A preserved ring kiln from the original facility remains integrated into modern construction, serving as a testament to the industrial heritage.
