The dynamite factory was built in 1887 by a Mr. Schickherr. He sold it to the Nobel company, which had branches in Bratislava, Csepel, and St. Lamprecht. The Zurndorf factory produced three classes of dynamite: single-, double-, and triple-dynamite, using the raw materials glycerol oil, sulfuric acid, ground saltpeter, and cellulose.
In 1921, the factory was relocated to Csepel (Hungary).
The Zurndorf dynamite factory is now privately owned by the Hoch family. The building has been undergoing renovation since 2006.

Cool story of the dynamite factory. Today, you'd think of it more as a castle than a factory. A beautiful property.
