Since 1997, PAUL has been involved in reconstruction of the Frauenkirche Dresden. Our achievements:

  • Elaboration of the technical solution and process engineering used for stressing the stressing anchors in the main cupola
  • Stressing joint model construction
  • Design and production of all special stressing equipment
  • Material testing of stressing equipment
  • Supply of equipment
  • Elaboration of stressing instructions
  • Stressing of anchors one and two of the main cupola
  • Support for the reconstruction project by a donation with symbolic purchase of a building stone in tower G

PAUL Maschinenfabrik GmbH & Co. donated a generous amount of money for the reconstruction of the Dresden "Frauenkirche" in order to thus finance an ellipsoid on a plinth stone of staircase tower G. The construction director of the "Frauenkirche", Eberhard Burger (on the right side) handed the certificate of donation on to General Manager Werner Paul (on the left side).
