history

Jodocus Detharding was the first name bearer who can be proven on documents in the 16th century. The family history, which goes back more than 300 years, produced seven generations of doctors who worked in Mecklenburg, especially in Rostock, and in Pomerania from around 1565 to the end of the 19th century, and thanks to their knowledge were very respected. The male descendants in the family were given the same or at least similar first names if possible. In memory of the family of scholars and their work at Rostock University, the city ​​of Rostock named Dethardingstrasse after the family.
