Constructors

In the early 20th century, between the railway line Ghent-Bruges and the Ghent-Ostend canal, 'La Brugeoise & Nivelles' rose from the ground, a famous railway equipment manufacturer.

From 1894, on Brunnenstraße and Ackerstraße in Berlin, AEG built a veritable city within the city: the brand-new 'AEG-Humboldthain' plant.

No fewer than 712 steam engines rolled off the production line at the Carels Frères construction workshop (later ACEC) in the Belgian town of Ghent between 1874 and 1914.

The Behrensbau is the crown jewel of Berlin's Oberschöneweide industrial area. In 1917, architect and AEG designer Peter Behrens established the Nationale Automobil Gesellschaft (NAG) automobile factory there, a subsidiary of AEG.

The Prince-Bishop's Palace of Seraing hides the former workshops of the Cockerill company.

In 1837, August Borsig set up a workshop on Chausseestraße in Berlin. Three years later, he assembled his first locomotive, the first of many.
