54th Würzburg Brick and Tile Training Course
The Würzburg Brick and Tile Training Course, which will take place from 1 to 3 December 2015, is devoted to all facets of clay brick manufacture and application. The excursion takes us to Fraunhofer-Institut für Silicatforschung ISC, Würzburg. Registrations can be made online as of immediately at //www.wuerzburger-ziegellehrgang.de" target="_blank" >www.wuerzburger-ziegellehrgang.de:www.wuerzburger-ziegellehrgang.de.
