Did you know that an Axthelm namesake founded a toy company with the most realistic stuffed animals you’ve ever seen? There is more information about this in the article on Hansa Creation.
At the Nuremberg Toy Fair 30 Jan to 3 Feb 2024 you can see the animals live.

In the article “Operation Lumber Room” you can find out a lot about General Walther von Axthelm, among other things. It is a very interesting war history article about the development of the v1 flying bomb “doodlebug” from the point of view of the Germans in WWII.

Dear Axthelms and everyone who identifies with this name!
Due to the still existing pandemic restrictions, I would like to finally inform everyone that the clan meeting planned for May 29, 2021 in Ostramondra cannot take place. Maybe next year there will be the opportunity to catch up on our social event in the same period and under better conditions. For this, however, specific information will follow later.
Happy Pentecost to everyone, health and all the best until then.
Your Karl-Ulrich Axthelm
