Winterhalder & Hofmeier (clocks)
Winterhalder and Hofmeier (clocks) goes back to ''Winterhalder Uhrenfabrik'' in the Black Forest, a clock manufacturer from 1810. It was further manifested from 1850 under the new name ''Winterhalder & Hofmeier''. In 1869 the company was renamed ''M. Winterhalder & Hofmeier, Friedenweiler und Schwaerzenbach, in Neustadt''. From 1908 the new name was ''M. Winterhalder & Hofmeier GmbH''. The company was part of the Black Forest clockmaker industry as its factory was located in Titisee-Neustadt and surroundings and as it subscribed to high quality standards. The company existed until 1933. It is regarded as one of the finest Victorian clockmakers of the time.
== Origins of the company ==
The firm Winterhalder Uhrenfabrik was established in 1810 by Thomas Winterhalder. Even his grandfather Nikolaus Winterhalder (1710-1743) made quality Black Forest clocks with wooden cogs and weights from stones.〔(de) (Winterhalder & Hofmeier on web site Uhrmacherwerkstatt.com ).〕 Thomas moved in 1816 with his three sons Matthäus, Karl und Thomas to Friedenweiler where he lived in an old house ("Altes Haus") which he had bought from a monastery. Matthäus Winterhalder (1799–1863) took over the work rooms in 1830. In 1850 his relative Johannes Hofmeier (1802-1876) from Schwaerzenbach, which is nowadays a part of Titisee-Neustadt joined and they formed the company ''Winterhalder & Hofmeier''. Clocks were marked from there on with the initials ''W & H Sch''.
