A bit of Krone history

In 1906, Bernhard and Anna Krone settled in Spelle, Germany, to operate Anna’s family inn, where Hotel Krone stands today. Bernhard opened his blacksmith shop for horseshoeing and repair work. Unknowingly laying the foundation for the worldwide company: Bernard Krone Holding GmbH & Co. KG.
