The JG Schreibmayr GmbH is a Munich specialty shop for Church supplies.
history
On October 10, 1820, Johann Georg Schreibmayr acquired the specialty commercial justice from Johann Georg Angerer in Munich Weinstrasse 7 for CHF 1,500. While Angerer was still selling all kinds of specialties and cloth , Schreibmayr specialized in church fabrics and embroidery . He made flags and paraments . This enabled Johann Georg Schreibmayr to expand his business into the most important of its kind in Munich.
In 1851, for reasons of age, he sold his son-in-law Johann Michael Gerdeisen, who was already in the middle of the business, for CHF 5,000. Together with a partner, he opened a branch at Filserstraße 1. The high quality of the products is demonstrated by some notable awards of the time.
- 1854 Prize medal at the general German exhibition in Munich
- 1873 Royal Ludwig Medal for Industry at the Vienna World Exhibition
- 1876 First Class Medal at the Munich Arts and Crafts Exhibition
In 1927 the J. G. Schreibmayr company was sold to the sisters Franziska, Elisabeth and Anna Maria Silberbauer, who left the management of the business to the employee Charlotte Schwägerl, who had already learned from J. M. Gerdeisen. She continued to run the shop when Josef Püttmann from Speyer bought the shop in 1930.
Püttmann, who had a large parament and flag embroidery in Speyer, also acquired the Wefers company in Cologne , which was active in the same branch. Under his leadership, the range was expanded to include all church supplies. During this time the company became purveyor to the court sr. Holiness Pius XI
In 1944 the business was completely destroyed, Charlotte Schwägerl resold her private apartment. In 1948, a suitable shop was finally reopened on Frauenplatz.
After the death of Josef Püttmann in 1957, son Bernhard took over the management. In 1958, the new business owner founded a company for the manufacture of church equipment in Munich. There was a lack of young people for this very special work, so that Bernhard Püttmann decided to relocate this branch of business to Passau . About 50 people were employed there. 1960 on the occasion of the Eucharistic World Congress in Munich with Pope Johannes XXIII. , the company received the order to produce 1500 congress ciborias. The decisive factor for this was the design of a ciborium with a rotatable plexiglass segment cover that protected the hosts from wind and weather. On April 1, 1974, Püttmann sold the production facilities in Passau to the workshop manager Thomas Keim.
