The models and machines of the Mechanical-Technological Collection, which has been active
under that name since 1850, served primarily as drafts for drawing practice. Julius Ambrosius
Hülsse (1812–1876), appointed in 1850, initiated the collection’s expansion. The inventory was
significantly extended by Ernst Hartig (1836–1900), Professor of Mechanical Technology,
beginning in 1865. Its inventory was further extended between 1920 and 1939 by the holder of
the Chair of Management Science, Ewald Sachsenberg (1877–1949). The collection, which was
decimated by war losses, comprises 500 historical objects, including semi-finished products,
machine models and work equipment.
