Many innovations developed by this organization were tested at Meppen, where one head of this organization organized the Volkerschiessen event. This organization became involved in the business for which it is best known in the early 19th century when its head Friedrich founded the Gusstahlfabrik, and that involvement continued under Friedrich's son Alfred, who prospered due to his contacts with Wilhelm I. This organization was responsible for the creation of a mostly-useless object with a meter-wide muzzle called the Big Gustav, though perhaps its most famous creation was the 42 centimeter caliber mortar deployed during the siege of Liege and named Big Bertha after its baroness head.
