      That is something that you would nowadays call a *Gesellenbrief*, apparently it was called a *Lehrbrief* in 1913. It’s a certificate about him successfully finishing his apprenticeship (*Ausbildung / Lehre*) as a plumber (*Klempner*).

      It’s a document stating that Hans Friedrich Wilhelm Klarr has finished his apprenticeship by showing his journeyman’s piece (I can’t read it, it’s some kind of clasp made of lead) and was promoted to journeyman by the association of plumbers in Hamburg.

      In addition to the *Lehrbrief*, your grandpa got the *Eisernes Kreuz Klasse 1*, i.e. the Iron Cross which is a first grade military honor. In this case for his duties in WW1.
