Browary Lubelskie

Browary Lubelskie is a Polish brewery situated in the Lublin Region. It was founded in 1844 in the abandoned ruins of the monastery of the Reforming Fathers by businessman Karol Rudolf Vetter for 5000 zł. In 1846 the brewery began brewing a Bavarian-style beer using bottom fermenting technology, which allowed for easy transport, thus expanding the market beyond the region’s borders. The brewery was originally powered by a twin horse-powered turbines. In 1881 the horses were replaced by steam engines. The second brewery was opened in 1914 by Hersz Jojna Zylber, a member of one of the wealthiest Lublin families, but production was halted by World War I, the stalls during the inter-war period and then during World War II Zylber and his family were deported to a ghetto. Only Zylber’s son survived, who after the liberation, changed name to Stefan Jankowski. Both breweries were nationalized by the new Communist State. In 1992 the company has been privatized and became a joint stock company. In 2001, the brewing operations were moved to the second site and the first site became a corporate headquarter. In 2014, the company renamed itself to Perła - Browary Lubelskie S.A (Perla - Lublin Breweries).
