History

In 1872, Silvester and Fridoline Mehr purchased the then called Herrmann's Salon and they barkeepers until their son took over of the business in 1911. From 1904 to 1911 Silvester Mehr was also President of the innkeepers association of Bavaria. Their son Engelbert and his wife Elisabeth turned the business into a viennese style café and they managed to run the business through both World War I and World War II. The next owners were Silvester and Maria Mehr, who ran the pub until Silvester's death in 2002. During their time, a big focus was set onto chess and pool billiard. Since 2002, Evelin Mehr is the sole owner of the Schelling-Salon.
