Light turned to slaughter: a company that began with 20 lamp-makers in 1863 became the third largest user of forced labor in Germany, producing 1.5 million anti-tank weapons every month and running 11 factories across three countries - so how did lamps lead to mass death?
In this episode, we trace the company's growth from a Paunsdorf workshop into a vertically integrated arms manufacturer, following leadership changes, military contracts, banking ties, and the paperwork that legalized forced labor; what choices and agreements accelerated HASAG’s transformation into a killing machine?
