Estate of Werner GrumpeltIn Altenburg, the colonial goods store C was founded in 1838. (Carl) J. (Julius) Grumpelt founded. It was located at Pauritzer Platz 4. In 1900 Karl Heinrich Grumpelt (1870-1935) took over the business and continued it until 1929. His son Werner Grumpelt (1909-1949, teacher and author), who also lived in Altenburg, was very interested in many things - including (global) history. He wrote two books about colonisation and life in Africa: "Im Herzen von Deutsch-Südwest. Erlebnisse des deutschen Reiters Albin Freier]" as well as "Einer aus Deutschland" (A story about the life of his great uncle Carl Albert Grumpelt). It can be assumed that both books are primarily novels, but also describe actual experiences.Karl Heinrich GrumpeltBirth date: 09.02.1870 in AltenburgSterbedatum: 07.03.1935 in AltenburgFather: Karl Heinrich Grumpelt Grandfather: Carl Julius GrumpeltCarl Albert GrumpeltResidence: Barkly West, Northern Cape, South AfricaBirth date: 24.12.1837 in Altenburg (christening: 07.01.)1938)Marriage: 29.04.1897 in Barkly West Deceased: 1920 Barkley West, South AfricaFather: Carl Julius GrumpeltProfession: Pharmacist Emigration to Africa after 1866 (at this time still employed as a pharmacist in Altenburg), witnessed Boer wars Protagonist in the novel by W.

Correspondence; Manuscripts, Printed matter

In today's colonial historiography, as far as the colonial rule in Togo is concerned, two names are certainly to be emphasized: Dr. habil. Peter Sebald († 2018) and Prof. Dr. Trutz von Trotha († 2013). The research results of these two scientists offer a detailed study of German rule in Togo 1884-1914. Numerous archive sources, monographs, anthologies, courses, journal articles, lectures from their estates now serve as valuable sources of information for current research. Peter Sebald and Prof. Trutz von Trotha on the history of German colonialism and Togo in particular. The family of Peter Sebald roughly sorted out 40 metres of running files and books in around 50 cartons in order to forward them to the ZMO. The estate consists of three parts: Materials ordered by Sebald himself, disordered documents and books. In addition to these three parts, there are 11 cartons of the estate of Trutz of Trotha, which still have to be sorted, the first and most important part being the documents sorted out by Sebald himself. These were accommodated by Sebald in 149 folders and placed in a rotating shelf. These documents can be classified according to chronological, geographical-regional, thematic, authorial and archive signatures, the second part being an unsorted stack of documents devoted to a wide range of topics, from personal political views to scholarly works by other authors and final theses by students. These documents were sorted and arranged from November 2017 to April 2018. During the processing of the second part of the estate, various materials came to light: flyers, brochures and copies of published Togo literature, archival files, numerous manuscripts of his own works, newspaper articles, invitations to events related to the region, a large number of photographs from the period of colonialism to the present day, correspondence on various topics related to Togo.

Foreword: * May 22, 1926 in Berlin † September 29, 2006 in Princeton Peter M. Grosz was born in Berlin as the son of the famous painter George Grosz. After his parents emigrated to the USA in 1932, he lived for another year with his aunt at Belle Alliance Strasse 1, where he had a good view of the flight operations at Tempelhof Airport from the fifth floor. These impressions fascinated him to such an extent that his childlike enthusiasm for aircraft turned into a lifelong hobby. In 1933 he moved to his parents in New York. He studied physics at Harvard and in 1952 moved with his wife Lilian to Princeton, which became their new home. There he worked in various research laboratories and several companies. After the death of his father in 1959, Peter Grosz administered and processed his estate. His hobby, however, remained aviation and with more than 220 published technical-historical articles, including standard works such as "The German Giants", "Austro-Hungarian Aircraft of World War I", "Die Fokker-Flugzeugwerke in Deutschland 1912-1921", he was the internationally recognized expert in the field of German aviation development up to the end of the First World War. Peter M. Grosz's well-organised, systematically structured archive of technical history comprises around 30,000 photographs, 160 Leitz files with technical documents, 104 manuals and operating instructions, more than 1500 books and over 220 publications published since the mid-1950s. The folders were dissolved during the new distortion, whereby the existing order structure was largely retained. In addition to the technical-historical documents on the individual aircraft manufacturers, the documents on the establishment of the German aviation troops during the First World War and Peter M. Grosz's extensive correspondence with other aviation historians are also of importance. The manuals and operating instructions were transferred to the collection of company documents, and the books were handed over to the library. The extensive photo collection will be listed separately at a later date, but can already be used with restrictions. The estate was presented to the German Museum of Technology on 2 October 2007 by Lilian Grosz. It has a scope of 1139 units of registration with a duration of 1889-2006.
