    Hello everyone,

    I'm irritated by a German inscription from the Nazi era: "Eiserne Arbeit Stählerne Wehr sichern uns Freiheit und Ehr/Iron work and steel defense secure us freedom and honor".

    I saw this inscription on a bronze plaque from the company "Kochs Adlernähmaschinenwerke A.G." from Bielefeld, which was made for the turn of the year 1935-1936.

    But it is said to have been used in 1939 as a jubilee inscription for another company.

    There is also a photo that is said to come from the "Reichsausstellung Schaffendes Volk Düsseldorf 1937" with the same inscription on a wall.

    Does anyone know this inscription and what it refers to, was that the motto of an association or organization?

    I appreciate every opinion and hint.

    Best regards

    Does nobody have an idea?

    This saying does not come from any particular organization or association. It's simply a saying that reflected the Nazi zeitgeist and was therefore used again and again. As the saying goes, "Sich regen bringt Segen/Movement brings blessings".

    Thanks Sammler. I wouldn't have guessed that it was a saying.

    On a German website I read the assumption that the photo of the hall was an event of the "Deutsche Arbeiterfront/German Workers' Front" movement. So I suspected it was a motto of this organization, but I couldn't find any proof of it.

    Best regards
