History

Established in 1861.

Schroedl’s is the oldest fabric care firm in Baltimore, and one of the oldest in the nation. In 1861, a young immigrant from Germany named Stephen Schroedl founded the Schroedl Dye Works on E. Baltimore St. To stay competitive in the booming dyeing and scouring business, Schroedl’s relied heavily on its delivery wagon which served the city from their own livery stable on S. Patterson Park Ave. The Schroedl plant was spared in the Great Fire of 1904 that swept through downtown Baltimore which allowed them to help others recover from the disaster. 100 years later, Schroedl’s is still dedicated to fire restoration. Schroedl’s plant does it all: complete garment care, including custom processing for delicate items, drapery cleaning, wedding gown preservation, rug cleaning, flame proofing, and disaster restoration. Today, Schroedl’s continues to be a family owned and operated business as the Gallon family assures our clients only the best quality, professionalism and personal attention.
