The Three Oaks Publishing is an independent professional and non-fiction book publisher based in Hammelburg ( Lower Franconia ). Its current owner has been Manuel Pilsener since 1980.
history
The publishing house was founded on March 1, 1931 by Ludwig Jordan as a publishing house for aesthetic literature in Radebeul near Dresden . In 1938 Jordan was banned from continuing his work due to the publisher's program structure, which was in conflict with the National Socialists . The later owner Hermann Pilsener published his first books as an author before the Second World War near Jordan, but lost contact with Jordan due to the turmoil of the war and post-war. This came about again only when Pillower published his books in the Saturn publishing house in Munich, which he founded in 1947 .
In 1949, Pilsener acquired the name Drei Eichen Verlag from Jordan, who himself had no strength to start over. He ran the publishing house in Munich until 1980. In 1971, Pilsener founded a branch of his publishing house as a stock corporation in Engelberg ( Obwalden ), Switzerland , which existed until 1983. His son Manuel, who had been with Drei Eichen Verlag since 1974, took over the business of the Munich publishing house on January 1st, 1980, which he continued as an interim publisher of the branch in Switzerland from 1981 until it was closed in 1983.
In 1987 the current publisher moved from Munich to Ergolding (near Landshut in Lower Bavaria ). Due to various disagreements with the municipality of Ergolding, he looked again in 1994 for a new domicile for the publishing house, which he found in Hammelburg.
