Mann family

Originally the Manns were merchants, allegedly already in the 16th century in Nuremberg, documented since 1611 in Parchim, since 1713 in Rostock and since 1775 in Lübeck.

The symbol in the family's coat of arms is Mercury, the ancient god of commerce (as well as of eloquence).

[2] The Dohm-Mann family tree contains a number of famous writers, musicians and actors.

The metadatabase TMI-Research[3] brings together archival materials and library holdings of the network "Thomas Mann International".

The platform, which is hosted by ETH Zurich, allows researches in the collections of the network partners across all houses.
