Events in Pforzheim

Post by _Baudett »

Hello, I would like to know if anyone knows if in Pforzheim, in the 70s there were sporting events between clubs and fans or sports races? If anyone knows of any event I would like to know since I am investigating the property of the former owner of my father's vehicle, Mr. Dieter Fend .... Does anyone know if there were racing events in or around Pforzheim?

I am interested in the Fend pen manufacturer. I think I also work with Mont blanc. Maybe you remember something? Thank you so much!!

Sorry to say no knowledge of Fend factory or family in my day
I could tell some of the history ,like why bombed feb 23 Rd as the factories were making parts for weapons ………the whole place was flattened and the rubble went to one of the 4 mountains surrounding the town post war………..the jewellery factories I worked in had all the latest equipment ,as it was new…the businesses were all family oriented,but never came across Fend
Good luck in your search…………..Karlsruhe down the road has big famous family Porsche business might just have some knowledge……….Son runs business but believe F at her still around. Freisinger of course

These are some of the things that I have been collecting ... I would like to know more about the bombing ... if I didn't understand correctly in a quick search the other day they bombarded it with approximately 1551 tons of bombs?

Good evening, I've gotten some more accurate information on the events I'm looking for information on. Those named on this page ... Kehel, solitude, speyer, etc ... if anyone has any information about those events in the 70s or knows where to look ...

I was able to verify that Mr. Dieter Fend ran for them, but in communications, they have no records ... I attach an image where it can be seen.
