Wieland becomes model enterprise within the NS regime’s planned economy

In 1939, a prominent Nazi visits the Wieland-Werke in Ulm

Although the factory tour by Prime Minister Christian Mergenthaler is a major event, it is not unusual, since Wieland has already been classified as a “NS model factory” and “important for the war” before the start of the war. For CEO Karl Eychmüller – certainly no National Socialist at heart – this visit is probably a difficult balancing act, but certainly an unavoidable compulsory exercise for the further prosperity of his company.
