history

First policy of the Aachen Fire Insurance Company, 1825

As a forerunner of AachenMünchener Versicherung AG, the Aachener Feuer-Versicherungs-Gesellschaft was founded in 1825 by David Hansemann , which was renamed Aachener und Münchener Feuerversicherungs-Gesellschaft in 1834 . In 1868, the German Life, Pension and Annuity Insurance Company was founded in Potsdam as the forerunner of AachenMünchener Lebensversicherung AG.

In the same year the Katholische Volkshilfe, a non-profit insurance company , later called Volkshilfe AG , was founded in Berlin. In 1938 a company in the group took over 74 percent of the share capital. The two companies merged at the beginning of the 1970s to form Volkshilfe Aachen-Münchener Lebensversicherung AG, which was later renamed Aachen-Münchener Lebensversicherung AG.

The group lost its foreign business in 1945 and had to limit its activities to the western zones of Germany.

Since 2005, Aachener und Münchener Lebensversicherung AG and Aachener und Münchener Versicherung AG have been operating under the new name AachenMünchener. Legally , the companies operate under the names AachenMünchener Lebensversicherung AG and AachenMünchener Versicherung AG . The AachenMünchener insurance company transferred its own field service completely to Deutsche Vermögensberatung AG (DVAG) in 2008 .
