Klaus Huss Passed Away (1939-2023)

Klaus Huss has died. Born in July 1939, Klaus Huss passed away in Bremen on March 21, 2023, at the age of 83. He was a man whose life was linked to the amusement ride industry from a young age. Just as the name Huss is to this day inseparable from the Free and Hanseatic City of Bremen.

At the beginning of the 1970s, Klaus Huss took over Huss Maschinenfabrik GmbH & Co. KG, which for 50 years was devoted almost exclusively to the construction of machines and silencers, especially for the shipbuilding industry. From 1969, when the funfair and amusement ride industry began to boom and only a few years later the first fairy tale and amusement parks were founded, the company also positioned itself in carousel construction. At the end of 1984 – with the entry of new owners – Klaus Huss left the company, but not the amusement industry, and has since been active and well-known in the industry as a freelance consultant and representative.

Klaus Huss, who is described by his friends and companions as a very cosmopolitan person, will be remembered by all who knew him as a very friendly, calm and discrete person who was always pleasant to talk to. The industry mourns Klaus Huss. (eap)
