Description

Mettlach “Old German Drinkers” Stein

Among the most well-known and highly regarded manufacturers from the “golden age” of German beer stein production in the late 19th and early 20th centuries is the Villeroy & Boch factory at Mettlach.

Located on the grounds of a former Benedictine abbey on the Saar river in southwest Germany, the factory was originally established in 1809 by Johann Franz Boch-Buschmann, who merged with competitor Nicholas Villeroy in 1836 to create the firm of Villeroy & Boch.
