Resources on the history of the Fugger familyThe Fugger family,
a family of weavers that had moved to Augsburg in 1367, in the course of the 15th and 16th century
became one of Europe's most powerful merchant dynasties. Ennobled at the beginning of the 16th century, the Fuggers started to withdraw step by step from business during the second half of the century. In the decades following 1600 they adopted an aristocratic lifestyle.
In 2009 the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek (Bavarian State Library) acquired two precious and highly informative books on the family history of the Fuggers.
