Prüm

The famous Prüm wine-growing family from the municipality of Bernkastel-Wehlen in the German Moselle wine-growing region has a long history dating back to at least the 16th century. One of the first documented members of the family was Gerhardus Hermann Prüm (1169-1229), although no direct line of descent can be traced back to him. The first genealogically verifiable ancestor, Peter Prüm, came to Wehlen from St. Goar.

Prüm - Familienaufstellung

Progenitor Sebastian Alois Prüm

Sebastian Alois Prüm (1794-1871) is considered the progenitor of today's winegrowing families. He married Maria Anna Ehsius in 1821. Of the seven sons, only Mathias (1835-1890), who owned one of the larger vineyards on the Middle Moselle, married. Mathias Prüm and Katharina (née Kieren) had six children. The estate was divided between them in 1911 and a number of well-known wineries were subsequently established.
