As my job is building steel plants, I also worked some five years ago inside that steel plant. It's well maintained and run by qualified engineers. The company does invest into the plant and expand production. After 1990, it had to be upgraded to modern emission standards and the quality standards for the final products had to be improved. To me, it looks like it will be one of the few former East German plants that will stay in operation for many years to come.

It’s not a “German city” in the traditional sense, but East Germany intended this to be a city that exemplifies German socialism. It’s a glimpse into futuristic socialist construction and what many new towns could have grown to look like had the DDR survived. East Germans found a good balance in this regard, they preserved the historic character when rebuilding cities destroyed in the war (eg Dresden, Magdeburg) yet began to develop a uniquely East German style - evident in the buildings and art of this video.

Here's another 'fun fact'. A long time ago, in the 1960's, I also used to live in a 'new town' - it was Crawley in West Sussex in England. I don't remember whose idea it was, but there was a proposed town twinning between Eisenhüttenstadt and Crawley. Of course, there were a lot of questions raised about how it could possibly get off the ground and what kind of arrangements could be made for exchanges between the two towns, given the political situation. Negotiations went on for quite a long time, but it must have become evident that it wasn't going to be very feasible. Anyway I'm sure I'm not the only one from Crawley who remembers the name of Eisenhüttenstadt. (By the way, I now have a son who lives in East Berlin, I must ask him if he knows the name of this town)

My entire family, grandma, grandpa, parents, uncles and aunts come from Eisenhüttenstadt and of course I do too. In 1989 there were around 53,000 residents and today there are no more than 24,000. All of my relatives worked in the EKO. Whether in the blast furnace, the cold rolling mill or the central workshop, everyone had found work in the EKO, regardless of whether they were women or men, everyone had to work. Family care was much better than it is today and the school system also worked better than it does in Germany today. It makes me sad to see how many residential areas have already been demolished and how the city is becoming smaller and smaller. Almost all the apartments that I can remember were demolished and so they only exist in my memories.

I had to do a case study on Eisenhüttenstadt in university. It is a very challenging situation for the people in charge of urban planning and housing. The city's population has shrunk to around 40% of the size that it had in the late 80s, so the government had to take drastic measure to dismantle many of the old soviet-style housing blocks and reshape it into a liveable city with a functioning and feasable infrastructure. It's a prime example of shrinking cities in eastern Germany. It sure is an oddly fascinating place.

Haben einige von denen hier. Hütte ist eigentlich nur deswegen "besonders" unter den Stadtplanern, weil die Stadt so jung ist und nicht nur aus alten Industrieruinen und Wohnbebauung aus Gründerzeit oder den 20ern besteht. Das Problem mit dem Schrumpfen ist allerdings nichts Besonderes. Hütte ist sogar noch gut dabei, weil die Industrie ja im Kern noch da ist. Städte wie Weißwasser oder Hoyerswerda haben ihren ganzen Kern verloren und sind deutlich stärker geschrumpft und haben noch deutlich mehr Probleme.

Excellent video. After 27 years of living in Berlin, I jumped on a train and went to visit Eisenhüttenstadt for a few hours last autumn. First, I went to Fürstenberg, a nice village on the Oder river - pretty much like most sleepy villages in the state of Brandenburg. Then I walked over to the centre of actual Eisenhüttenstadt and saw most of the sights you showed. As you pointed out, the population has diminished considerably - the steelworks still operate, but are far more productive and only need a fraction of their former staff. So not only is there less traffic than you would expect in a town of that size - many of the people you see there are very old folks, many of whom probably former steel workers or their families. So I'd expect population to further decline sharply over the next 20 years. EHS left me puzzled - it was a socialist showcase town, allowing its inhabitants more and better housing than in most other places in the GDR. On the other hand, you lived on a playing field entirely designed by the regime (hence no church and no spire...).

Interesting. An excellent German-language movie (entitled "The Silent Revolution") which was based on a German book entitled "Das Schweigende Klassenzimmer" depicts an actual event which took place in East Germany in 1956 wherein a senior high school class (Arbiturienten) sat silent for two minutes in support of the 1956 Hungarian Revolt, for which they were subjected to a lot of pressure, but refused to yield. An OUTSTANDING movie. My question is that they called the town in which this happened (which was actually the East German town of Storkow) "Stalinstadt." That's probably artistic license, but I was wondering if Eisenhuettenstadt (which was previously Stalinstadt) had anything to do with the events in that German movie.

Artifacts from another era are amazing. There is no way to let them disappear. The mosaic is great. The city is beautiful with its quiet life. It became a little sad. Probably nostalgia. Please save this.

Much appreciated, thank you. By it's riparian location alone, I'd think that it has substantial record of incorporation within many regimes.

I have to say I've only visited Germany once, and that was a day trip from Eindhoven! This is inspiring me to take a cheapo Ryanair flight to Berlin next month! Never thought I'd say that!

Fantastic video and I love your channel. I'll even forgive you for calling football 'soccer'. Just don't do it again. 😂 Immer bereit.

The vacant houses would be nice if we send the homeless over there.

Wonderful tour, thank you. Was the town as empty as shown? Or did you simply wait for people to be out of your way. It gives off the feeling of a ghost town.

It was quite empty. Only few people on the streets.
