Английская Википедия:Central Union of Stone Workers of Germany
The Central Union of Stone Workers of Germany (Шаблон:Lang-de) was a trade union representing stone masons in Germany.
The union was founded in 1884 in Halle, as the Association of Stonemasons of Germany, as a purely professional organisation. In 1903, it was centralised as the "Central Union of Stone Workers".[1]
From 1919, the union was affiliated to the General German Trade Union Confederation, while internationally, it was affiliated to the International Secretariat of Stone Masons.[1] In 1924, the union absorbed the Union of Stone Setters, Pavers and Kindred Trades.[2]
By 1928, it had 68,033 members, and was based in Leipzig. Leading figures in the union included Paul Stark, Alois Staudinger, and Paul Schencke.[1][3]
The union was banned in 1933 by the Nazi government. After World War II, stonemasons were represented as part of the Building and Construction Union.
