The G. Krug Iron Works is locat ed a t 4 15 ~Ps t Sa r a t oga Str e e t, in the h ear t of do\..·nto\..·n Ba ltimore , ~:aryl and . The lot o n "'hi c h the businC>ss is located is bound e d by Jasper Street o n the east, by Welsh Al l e y on the wes t , a nd a combi nation access road - pa rking area to the south . The front f acade of the bus ine s s fronts Wes t Sa~at~ga Stree t and.rises in configuration slight l~ from Pas t Lo wes t . The pres e n t building compl e x which.now houses the company office and actua l operating ironworkE consists of three sections : 1) a two story tall , gable roofed building dating from the first quart er of the nineteenth century , which houses the ea rli e st shop, locatei a t the northeas t corner o f the lot ; 2) a four story tal l Victori a n building ~hich houses a business office on the first f l oo r an d storage rooms o n the uppe r floors, situated on the northwes t corner of the lot; and 3) a three story tall shed roofed addition dating from 1870-1880 , located at the southeast cor ne r of the lot, ~h ich houses the expanded shop , and a smaller two story shed roofed addition , which also houses portions of the expanded shop facil ity.

DESCRlPTlON

Section number 1: This common bond (5/1) brick struc ture is two stories tal l, two bays wide, and fou r bays deep . On the first floor , two paired 6/6 double-hung sash windows have b een inserted at the northeast corner. Also two modern iron doorf, each with six panes of glass in their upper portions , have b een inserted between thl bays . A h istoric photograph , dating f rom a f te r 1849, in the coll ecti o n of the company , clearly shows the original front door configuration . Although the door itself is not vi sible, the ope ning was simply trea ted , and was s u rmo unted by a three-light transom. The original opening terminated at a poin t l eve l to the ex i s t ing windows . Di r ec tly to the right of the doors , a t the northwest corner , an original 12/12 double hung sash window can be found. Wr ought iron barred window guards now protect the bottom sashes of all fi rst floor windows . Between the first and second stories of this , as well as section f/2 , a large painted sign r eading " Ornamental Misc . Metal Work, G. Krug & Son , Welding a nd Repa ir, Custom Meta l Work" is found . On the second floor two original 12/ 12 windows with wooden sills and lintels and corbeled brick cornice provide an indication of how the original f enestration was placed . A single small dormer (with a window with six panes in t he upper sash , four panes i n the lowe r sash) is cen trally placed on the roof , ~hich appears to be me ta: painted black .

On the east gable facade , the building is four bays deep . \..'indovs on the firs· floo r are 6/6, with wooden sills and brick soldjer courses for lintels and mos t probably mid-nineteenth century repla cements . As with the windows on the main fa ca de these are also protected by barred window gua rds . A thin 4" Yide wooden strip running across all four bays separates the first from the second fl oors . ~indow: on the second floo r are 12/12 with wooden s ills and lintels . At the peak, paired 12/9 windows provide light to the interior . Lastly , a small 9/6 window has been inserted i n the b rick ed- in area which now exists b etween the origina l r ea r gab le roof slope of this building , and section 03.

Section numbe r 2 : This fou r story Lall , two bay wide by two bay deep s tructure originally began as an ea rly ninet eenth century residence , and was not associa ted with the ironworks unti l l ater in the business ' s hi s tory. Architectural e vidence indicates tha t this building may possibly have predated section fi l and was certainly originally a two story , gable roofed structure . ( Inf ormation provided l ater, describing this section ' s interior help s ubst ant iate thisJ This structure is also constructed of brick, but is laid in Flemish bond o n the first two stories of the main (nor th) fa cade , a nd all stretcher bond above . On the front fa cade , all windows are aligned and are 6/6 with splayed lintels and plain wooden sills. Above the fourth story windows , projecting rows o f bricks define a plain architrave a nd frieze which in turn supports a n ornat e painted wooden bracketed cornice .

On the west facade , three windows in various locations can be found . All J1 3ve been bloc ked from the interior . On the se~ond floor , the wal l is blank in the fir s t )ay , but has a modern window which lights a bathroom in the second. On the third and fourth floors, windows are aligne d , and identical, but sri:alle r i n s ize than those found on the front facade .

Section number 3 : (This section consists of two buildings of different sizes , and will be described as the southeast and southwest sections .)

Southeast section: This three story tal l building , added to the rear of Section #1 , was built to house the expanding shop operation, s team engine, an d powe r t ools , during the 1870-1880 period . On the eas t facade , the building is five bays wide , with each bay division delineated by projecting buttresses which terminate in a corbeled brick cornice. From the southeast corne r , all windows in the firs t , third , fourt h and fif th bays are aligned , are 6/6 double hung sash , and have stone sills and segmental lintels . As with other windows in sections#} and 2 , first floo r windows are also protec t ed by b arred window guards . In the second bay, access is gained into the firs t floo r interior through a pair of metal fire doors , whose transom is surmounted and protected by curved metal bars. On the second floor, a pair of French doors , whc::Elower third are also protected by a metal railing , allow access into the second floo r . These doors have glass in thei r upper portions, to allow li ght into the second floo r of the structure . This opening is ar ticulated by a proj ecting sill and segmental lintel . On the third 1loor , double doors similar to those one floor below offer access into this section of the s h op . A h eavy hoist which projec ts 2-3 feet over the sidewalk below , is placed direc tly ove r the double doors.

On the south facade, much of the fenestration on the first and second floors has been covered by a modern application of concrete . A black anvil-shaped advert i sing sign has been placed between floors . A small window (covered) on the fi r st fl oo r ' s southeast corner , and 6/6 window on the second floo r ' s southeast corner , r ema in . On the third floor , all three 6/6 windows remain, protected under plywood panels . These windows have plain brick sills and flat arches. At the southwest corner of the building, a chimney with encircling band of cement , pierces the roof .

Southwest section : This two story tal l brick structure appears to have b een constructed a t approximately the same time as the southeast section , a lthough no t in such a sturdy and heavy manne r . On the south facade , the original location of fenestration has b een all but obliterated through the application of a concrete patch o n the first floor , and insertion of a grouping of 20th century industrial windows o n the second floor . One i mportant "survival" do e s exis t on the firs t floor l evel, sou thwest corner. Here , one of the firms ornamental iron gates can be found .

The west faca de of this sec tion is five bays long . Windows are identical in bays one , thre e , four a nd five , from the southwest corner . On the first floor , the 6/6 windows with stone sills and segmental brick lintels are completely protected by iron guards . A series of diamond shaped tie-rod bolts are found direct ly above the firs t floor level , an d delineate the interior floo r level o f this structure . On the · econd floor, all windows are aligned. Windows and decorative treatment are identical , ~xcept for the window at the northwest corner, which has been replaced . Within the second bay , double doors on firs t and second floor levels were provided for mov ing stock , h eavy machinery , and other products into this area of the business . A l1ois t , identical to that found in the southeast section, is located above the second floor double doors. Also , like its counterpart, this facade is terminated with a corbeled brick cornice .

INTERIOR DESCRIPTION

Section number 1: This sect ion of the operation from \~est Fayette Street is entered f rom the pair of modern double doors . Turning to the right, one steps up to a moder n iron landing , which leads through another modern door into section #2 which now serves as the business office . From the landing , one may also turn lef t and walk up the modern iron stairs to the second floor .

On the workroom floor , a number of varied pieces of equipment and work tables are found . Portable weights and a scale are found near the landing . A large combination punch and shear machine, manufactured by the Long and Allstater Company of Hamilton , Ohio , and purchased by the company in 1888 sits in the center of the room. Company records contain numerous correspondence regarding the purchase of this piece of equip~ent . Other c utting equipment is found in various locations in the room .

The Krug Iron Works is s ignificant a s a unjque su rvival of over a century a nd a half of meta Jworking in Baltimore and for its hi storic role as ~anufacturer of muc h o f the city ' s decora tive ironwork . Begun in 1810 as a blacksmith ' s s hop , it ha s occupied the same s ite and a s imilar scale despite dramatic technological and organizational change in indus try. The quality and variety of its iron grills , railings, and other archit ectura l elements may be seen on buildings throughout the city .

nlSTORY AND SUPPORT

In 1810 t he blacksmi th shop at Saratoga Stree t a nd Shor t Alley was the workplace of Augus tus Schwa tke , one of numerous blacksmiths in the city. Blacksmiths were almost as plentiful as butchers or tailors in early nineteenth century Baltimore •¥here they provided all meta l parts for domestic , commerc ial a nd industrial uses . · ~verything from horseshoes a nd wagonwheels to nails a nd fences were the products of local blacksmiths . Schwatke was an inunigrant ·Pole or Czech and no one knows exac tly what type of products he ma de . Chances are that his major customers were locat ed in the i mmediate neighborhood, an area centered on the Lexington Market . It is likely tha t the but che rs , drovers and liverymen nearby were his most fr equent clients . Schwatke had previously b een located on Lexington Stree t in Old Town in 1804 . When he moved to Sara toga and Short Al l ey , the site of present-day Krug & Sons , he was probably anticipat i ng the general westward growth of the city . In a ny case he established the s ite as an ironworking shop which it has remained until the present .

In 1830 Andrew Merker bought the shop from Catherina and John Schwatka (sic) who ~ere probably Augustus ' children . Merker was a German i mmigran t from Alsace who is recorded in the records of the Old Otterbein Church b eginning about 1840 . In 1858 he hired Gustav Krug to help h im in the shop .

Krug ' s arrival in Baltimore coincided with the beginning of l arge-scale German i mmi gration to the city. The influx of Germans r adically changed the nature of the ci ty ' s cultural and archi tectural character . In architec t ural ornament the i mpac t was large and the firm of Merker and Krug a nd later G. Krug and Sons played a n important part . T~e Germans excelled a t ironrnaking and their i mm i gration here wa s a classic e xample of t echnological and aes thetic change by geographic diffusion . Tne great influx brought craf t smen like Merker and Krug but also brought the thousands of their countrymen who would provide a ma rket for their ~ares . The taste for heavy ornamental ironw.ork (which we label as "Victorian" ) r eally owes much of its popula ri ty to the German influence on popular culture during the middle and late nineteenth ·en tury . Krug i rrnnedia tely began to specialize in archi t ec tural decora tion . l·ierker

had concentrated on church bells , but by the 1860s the firm had become preeminent i n the manufac ture of " iron fence railings " and grills . Th·e Krug drawings and records a t the Maryland Historical Society show the incredible variety of forms th~t the

company made . Their decoration was used on nume ro11s Baltimore landmarks including the ornate Johns Hopkins Hospital , the University Club , the Mercantile Trust Building and the Baltimore Zoo . The firm also shipped its work to other eastern and southern states outside of Maryland , achieving a regional r e putation as well .

The Krug output is a fascinating record of the impact of changing meta lworking technology on artistic form . The firm used a combination of wrought and cast iron to achieve spec tacuJar effects . Ancient and medieva l ironwork was almos t all made from wrought iron whethe r the pattern was floral or geome tric . Floral patterns and other naturaljstic subjects were difficult to achieve in wrought iron, however , and cast pieces began to play an increasing part in more elaborate designs . The Krugs depended on the Bartlet t and Ha)'\..iard foundry to supply the cast rosettes and finials of ma ny patt erns .

The use of cast iron elements and the addition of steam-powered machinery to the shop lowered the cos t of Krug's products and made them available to a wider market . Sometime around the Civil War a steam engine was purchased to run dril l presses , shears and saws . In 1888 a large punch press (still in use) was added . In this way n ew techniques could be used to increase efficiency and production.

The Krug Company still persists , adding whatever new t echniques are adaptable to their purposes . The business is run today by Theodore Krug and his son Steven , direct descendants of Gustav Krug . Host of the work at the small forge has b een repla ced by welding process and new , self-powered drill presses have replaced the old belt­driven ones . These changes , however , have been made within the context of the old custom s hop tradition preserving the overall scale and character of one of Baltimore ' s most unique indus trial establishments .

Metalworking industries were critical in Baltimore ' s transformation from a commercial to an industrial city. The replacement of handicrafts by machine production depended largely in the abilities of blacksmiths , brass founders and other metalworkers to build machines . The city ' s me tal craftsmen comprised a pool of skills and knowledge which entrepreneurs relied upon to increareproduction .

The Krug and Sons Ironworks is significant as a unique survival of over a century and a half of me talworking and for its historic role as manufacturer of much of the city ' s decorative ironwork . Begun in 1810 as a blacksmith ' s shop, it has occupied the same site and a similar scale despite dramatic technological and organizational change in industry . The quality and variety of its iron gri lls, railings and other architectural elements may be seen on buildings throughout the city. The character of many of these is also an example of the influence of Gerrr.an immigrant craftsmen on the city ' s materia l culture .
