  Käte Ahlmann with the Minister President of Schleswig-Holstein, Kai-Uwe von Hadsel, at the award of the Grand Cross of Merit of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany on 3 October 1960. The picture also shows Dr Marlene Halhuber-Ahlmann; Juliane, now Jebsen; and her son Hans-Julius. Kai-Uwe von Hadsel's connections to the Ahlmann story were manifold. His grandmother was a Thormann, so he came from the family that once owned part of the ACO site. He was also an uncle of Hans-Michael Jebsen, Hans-Julius Ahlmann's half-brother.

  Funeral procession for Käte Ahlmann on 21 June 1963 on the Carlshütte site. Eleven-year-old Hans-Julius Ahlmann carries the cushion with the deceased's Federal Cross of Merit. The 3,000 employees of the Carlshütte form a guard of honour. Their long-time confidant Dr Carl Wuppermann speaks at the funeral service. The shadow on the right is cast by the transformer building; the old "sheet metal building" can be seen on the left.
