Adolf Gottlieb (also Gottlob) Fiedler (1771 in Dresden; August 12, 1850, there) was an entrepreneur in Saxony and Poland. Adolf Fiedler was the son of Christian Gottlob Fiedler and one of the largest industrial textile owners in Saxony at the beginning of the 19th century. The headquarters of his enterprises was in Oederan, Saxony. He operated additional factories in Kalisz and Opatowek (both in Poland), as well as in Wegefarth, Wingendorf, Falkenau, and Berthelsdorf, all located in Saxony. Like other industrialists, he expanded into Eastern Europe. Fiedler founded his most productive factory in Opatowek, Poland, in 1824. Here, investors found cheap labor and generous loans from the Polish state following the weaver uprisings. Another criterion was the existing infrastructure on site.
