The bombing of Ludwigshafen and Oppau in World War II attacked several strategic targets in the area, including targets of the Oil Campaign of World War II. Ludwigshafen oil plants were managed by Dr. Wurster of the Ludwigshafen Military Government, and their chief function was to improve "gasoline quality by dehydrogenation" using the DHD process. Ludwigshafen also refined "30-50 tons/day of crude oil...brought in from Brücksel, near Karlsruhe...to products including lube oils." About 2.5 miles away from Ludwigshafen, an Oppau plant produced fertilizer and up to "800 T/day nitrogen as ammonia and a considerable part of this was exported as liquid ammonia to Hochst, Wolfen and Bittefeld." A separate Oppau plant produced up to 60 T/day of urea. Dr. Gogel was head of the "high pressure depar

  • Die Luftangriffe auf Ludwigshafen im Zweiten Weltkrieg zerstörten die Innenstadt von Ludwigshafen zu rund 80 %. Etwa 1.846 Einwohner wurden hierbei getötet und 3.147 verletzt. Unter den Toten befanden sich auch rund 600 ausländische Arbeiter, von den viele verschleppte Zwangsarbeiter waren. Insgesamt erfolgten 124 britische und US-amerikanische Luftangriffe auf Ludwigshafen, bei denen schätzungsweise 140.000 Brandbomben und 1.200 Sprengbomben abgeworfen wurden. Ludwigshafen gehört damit zu den am meisten bombardierten Städten des Deutschen Reiches. (de)
