Settlement Communities
In
the factory’s own workers’ settlements arose communities which have been
an important element in the social life of Marienthal. The differences
in the materials used, in the size and equipment of the buildings caused
different perceptions of their occupants. For example, the inhabitants
of the Marienthal workers’ settlement, now revitalized, were regarded as
socially superior to the inhabitants of the workers’ Hinterbrühl
boarding-house. The inhabitants of residences near the factory area had
a higher social reputation; thus, the house of the general director,
Herrenhaus (Manor-House), was located directly between the factory
plants.
