The Former Rueckert Bookshop
Historic Building
-
In June 1871, Ernst Stoer (1846-1934) founded a bookstore that was for a long time located on the market square (on the site of today's new city hall). In 1921 it became the property of Johannes Trebst (1887-1972), who renamed the bookstore "Rückert Bookshop", effective January 1, 1923. At the same time he had a wooden relief of Friedrich Rückert (1788-1866) affixed above the front door, which was created by the Würzburg sculptor Ludwig Sonnleitner (1878-1947).
Erected by Stadt Schweinfurt.
