Krupp Steelworks, Essen, 1850
Bildnummer 12626775

He also invested in the revolutionary Bessemer process and acquired many mines in Germany and France. The company began to make steel cannons in the 1840s. Low non-military demand and government subsidies meant that the company specialized more and more in weapons: by the late 1880s the manufacture of armaments represented around 50% of Krupp's total output.
