Reinhold Würth is 90 years old today. On this occasion we will publish this interview from autumn 2024 again.
A hot summer day in Hohenlohe, in the glowing sunlight stands on a green meadow compared to the Würth company center, the Carmen Würth Forum, a minimalist building made of glass and concrete from the architect David Chipperfield. It contains the Würth 2 Museum and the Chamber Music Hall of the Würth Philharmonic. Inside, Reinhold Würth enters the room in the suit, with small steps and slightly bent. He is now 89 years old. His biographer Helge Timmerberg certified the billionaire a “friendly fragility”. It is pretty good. In exceptional cases, the company should only be marginally about. For this around the art collection that Würth has built up for decades. It is one of the largest private collections in Europe.
