Production was on an improvised scale initially. The cooking was simple – "usually stew" – recalls Walter Mohr and goes on to say: "Haymaking was still ongoing at the plant and rabbits and deer were hunted on the grounds, for which we had to grant permission."[1] Yet production was soon operating at a highly professional level.
Production of cookers and light fittings commenced at the Siemens plant in Traunreut in 1950.[2] The plant was incorporated into BSH[3] in 1967.[4] Bosch cookers were also produced here from that time on. In 1971, Traunreut produced the floodlight system for the sports facilities for the Olympic Games in Munich, which were to take place the following year.[5]

- ↑ BSH was founded in 1967 as Bosch-Siemens Hausgeräte GmbH - BSHG for short. In 1998, the name was changed to BSH Bosch Siemens Hausgeräte GmbH, with the short form BSH. Since the sale of the Siemens shares in BSH to Robert Bosch GmbH the company’s name is now BSH Hausgeräte GmbH, but still BSH for short.
