On July 29, 1862, Wolf Manasse Wolf, who was born in Bieringen an der Jagst, was issued a certificate by the city of Heilbronn to legitimize his announcement submitted to the city council in Heilbronn that he wanted to operate a rag and country products business on his own account. As early as 1864, Wolf Manasse Wolf purchased a plot of land at Paulinenstraße 21 and built a residential and commercial building on it. The business was very successful, so that in 1871 and 1876 two adjoining buildings were newly equipped for the business. In 1900, a warehouse was added to a fourth building.

On July 5, 1882, Gustav Würzburger together with M. Strassburger and Sons ( these probably only as financiers ) bought the bankrupt brewery from Wilhelm Wecker Jr. at Deutschhofstraße 1 along with all the real estate and brewery equipment, thus acquiring the right to distill spirits, brewing and vinegar boiling.
