The German armed forces (the "Wehrmacht") established an army munitions facility in St. Georgen in 1938 in a wooded area near the Chiemsee lake. When the war ended, the factory was abandoned and displaced people moved into the former industrial development. Siemens founded a new plant on the site of the former munitions factory in 1949. The plant was discovered by Walter Mohr, Head of Siemens-Schuckert-Kleinbauwerke in Hof. Under his guidance, the plant facilities were redeveloped and the site cleared of the raw materials used for the poison gas grenades formerly produced there.<ref>BSH Corporate Archives, D01.08-0026, Chronik Traunreut, no page.
