Industrial ruins and transformed industrial plants that were relevant in the workers’ biographical narratives are discussed. Most of these sites are located directly in Nuremberg (like AEG, MAN and Grundig) or – as in the case of Maxhütte – are nearby and are visited by interviewees currently living in Nuremberg (see Chapter 2). By analysing the workers’ place-related emotions, the distinction between a set of objective conditions which define class, the experience of being employed as a worker, and the subjective consciousness of one’s own class position, is investigated. This chapter demonstrates the political aspect of supposedly very personal cultural characteristics within emotions and experiences.
