It was founded in 1820 by Johann Nepomuk Ostermayr (1800–1855). His son Johann Leonhard Ostermayr (1842–1906) expanded the business substantially. His sons Hans und Julius Ostermayr entered the business around 1900. A new landmark shop was constructed at that time at the Königstraße 31–37. The company received an Imperial and Royal Warrant of Appointment to the court of Austria-Hungary as well as Royal ones to the courts of Bavaria and Romania.[1]
The main store was destroyed during World War II in the aerial bombings of the city.[1]
