Moss-covered spherical building with two basement floors. Some of the former inventory is still there.

Mitteldeutsche Motorenwerke GmbH (MMW, also MiMo) was a company that existed from 1935 to 1948 and was based in Leipzig (from 1939 Taucha), which belonged to the Auto Union group. MiMo manufactured Junkers aircraft engines under license and was the third largest Auto Union plant after Horch in Zwickau and the Siegmar plant (formerly Wanderer) near Chemnitz.

The factory facilities were located northwest of Taucha in a forest area that partly belonged to Leipzig-Portitz. The production program mainly included the Junkers Jumo 205, Jumo 211, Jumo 213 and parts for the Jumo 004 jet turbine. At that time, 10,000 people (including forced laborers) were employed. The factory facilities were partially dismantled as an armaments plant after the end of the war in 1947, and the remains were blown up. The company was deleted from the commercial register of the Leipzig District Court on August 27, 1948.

Today you can rather see in this area how the artifacts disappear and nature returns.
