Ernst March

The land where the factory and workers' residences were located is now part of the north campus at Technische Universität Berlin.

He eventually became the leading terracotta producer, exceeding the output from the factory owned by Feilner, who had died in 1839.

The architect, Friedrich August Stüler, used March's terracotta bricks and forms for the nearby St.-Matthäus-Kirche [de], and developed new uses for them at the Neues Museum.

In 1846, he oversaw the process of creating terracotta columns for the atrium in the garden at the Orangerieschloss in Potsdam, designed by Ludwig Persius.

Due to the heat and a draft, he caught what was assumed to be a cold, but it degenerated into kidney and lung ailments.
