Henschel Lastwagen 1925-1974 (Typenkompass)

The iron foundry and machine factory, founded in Kassel in 1816, was one of the most important large companies in Germany and was renamed Henschel-Werke in 1957. The specialist in locomotive construction and armaments technology was taken over by what would later become Rheinstahl in 1964, before truck production was finally merged with that of Hanomag in 1969 and finally disappeared from the market in 1974.

Apart from these ups and downs, high-quality heavy-duty vehicles were produced under the brand logo with the six-pointed star, which are still remembered today. Today, Henschel is one of the icons of German commercial vehicle history.

Die Familie: 200 Jahre Henschel in Kassel - Sechs Generationen Unternehmensgeschichte

The Henschel family has shaped life in Kassel for six generations. Founded in 1810 by Georg Christian Carl Henschel as a foundry, the Henschel works developed into one of the most important machine and vehicle factories in Germany.
Over the decades, they have experienced all the highs and lows: inflation and the global economic crisis, the time as an armaments factory during the Second World War, the post-war years.

"Henschel is Kassel and Kassel is Henschel, " they said at the time. The Henschel family has always shown that economic success and social responsibility go hand in hand.
All of that is long gone. And yet, for example, the Sophie-Henschel-Platz in front of the Red Cross Hospital and the university on the site of the old main factory are reminders of the Henschel family.

In his richly illustrated book, author Thomas Siemon tells the story of the rise and fall of a large and influential family business. He portrays the entrepreneurial personalities who have given Henschel a face over the years and recalls the close connection between the factory and the city of Kassel.

Henschel 33 - 3-Tonner Lastkraftwagen (6x4) im Dienste der Reichswehr und Wehrmacht

The bulk of Wehrmacht transport of World War 2 was in the 3-ton payload range. The best known truck in this class, aside from the Opel Blitz S, was the Henschel Typ 33. It is creditable that a peacetime design that saw the light of day as early as 1934 (when mass production for the Reichswehr was launched) survived for such a long time in the treadmill of World War 2.
Even more amazingly, it did not have any major need of modernisation or modification. The Henschel 33 was capable of functioning under the harshest of wartime conditions.

This publication describes the history, technology, variants, production batches and wartime service of the Henschel 33 3-ton 6x4 in unprecedented detail.

Henschel HS 140: Das Lastwagen Typenalbum

After a forced break of several years, the Kassel-based Henschel works were able to build trucks of their own design again in 1949. The first was a six-ton truck, which was given the name HS 6 in keeping with its payload. A Lanova six-cylinder diesel engine operated under the elegant long hood.
When the impressive trucks went into series production in 1950, they were given the type designation HS 140 due to their engine power of 140 hp. The series remained in the range until 1961, most recently with 192 hp.

All model series of the HS 140 type as well as the more powerful hooded trucks HS 150 and HS 170 are presented here in words and pictures. The largely previously unpublished images show the trucks in their environment with a variety of body variants and in different applications.
The presentation is completed by original documents such as brochure prints and detailed technical data tables.
