The gold and silversmith trade and Schwäbisch Gmünd are linked by a centuries-long tradition. The first goldsmith is mentioned in the documents as early as 1372, although in the 14th century the gold and silver craft had not yet spread beyond the Gmünd area. From the middle of the 17th century, it continuously developed into the determining trade of the then imperial city: at the end of the 16th century, there were already ten master goldsmiths working in Schwäbisch Gmünd, in 1695 there were 94, and in 1739 there were even 250 gold and silversmiths.
