Theodor Stauder

Theodor Stauder

Theodor Stauder (* 1821 in Nordheim am Main , † 1882 in Essen ) was a German brewer and founder of the private brewery Jacob Stauder .

Live and act

The trained beer brewer and co- maker Theodor Stauder worked in Laub in Lower Franconia . His two sons Jacob (* 1852) and August (* 1854) were born here.

In 1866 Theodor Stauder came to the still rural small town of Essen, where he initially worked for a year for the miller and innkeeper Schäfer in the Schäfer windmill, which was in front of the Limbecker Tor , at that time west of the city of Essen. A house brewery belonged to this mill. On November 14, 1867, Stauder took over the Schlickersche Brewery in the town center on Steeler Strasse, which was already out of service, as the owner Jacob Schlicker and his wife succumbed to cholera in 1866. Stauder brewed a bottom-fermented beer the Bavarian style that sold well in Essen. But Stauder was unable to expand spatially and competition from the Actien beer brewery, newly founded in 1872 in Essen an der Ruhr , later Stern , grew. So the Stauder family moved to Altenessen in 1873 to take over a house brewery with an inn on the Emscherbrücke. In 1876, his sons Jacob and August Stauder leased a plot of land on Bruckmannstrasse in Altenessen with the aim of building a brewery there. After separating from his brother, Jacob Stauder bought the property and continued to expand the Jacob Stauder private brewery, which is now registered under his name, so that it is still in the sixth generation today.
