History
Antonín Sommer, our ancestor, founded the funeral services in 1870. He came from a carpenter family that eventually shifted its focus to coffin production and later started providing funeral services. At the time, near the Říčany Castle, where we still have our office today, there were only a few houses surrounded by fields, and at the crossroads leading to Kuří, three beautiful centuries-old linden trees flourished.
For decades, the family business was passed down from father to son until it reached our grandfather, Alois Sommer. He was responsible for the funeral service even after it was nationalized in 1948 and endeavored to maintain the most dignified level of funerals throughout. After 1989, our father, Miroslav Sommer, took over the service and revived what our ancestors had built.
