A Brief History of the Marque
Manufacturer: Ramesohl & Schmidt AG, Oelde
Established in 1893, the firm built only one motorcycle model, in 1901.
The only surviving example of the Westphalia is on display at Das Motorradmuseum Heiner Beckmann in Harsewinkel-Greffen.
The firm built automobiles from 1906 until 1913 when that part of their business was sold to Hansa Automobil-Gesellschaft m.b.H. of Varel (later Hansa-Lloyd), and Ramesohl & Schmidt continued with their main operation of producing Westfalia milk separators.
GEA Westfalia is still in business.
