Wollmer

Wollmer may refer to several things. In the context of surnames, Wollmer is a German occupational surname, likely derived from the Middle High German word "wolber," meaning "wool merchant" or "wool dresser." It is found in various German-speaking regions and has spread to other parts of the world through migration.

Notable individuals with the surname Wollmer include John Wollmer, a British painter and engraver active in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, known for his portraits. Another is Gustav Wollmer, a German engineer and inventor.

The term "Wollmer" could also potentially refer to a place name, although this is less common. If a specific place named Wollmer exists, it would likely be a small village or rural locality within a German-speaking country. Without further context, it is difficult to pinpoint a specific geographical location. The etymology of any such place name would likely also be connected to the history of wool production or trade in that area.
