History
18th century Germany
Hi everyone,
this term is from a biography of a person in 18th century Herzberg. The sentence is:
"Sie zogen in das Griebelsche Haus am Ochsenpfuhl, das zum Vorwek der Domäne gehörte."
So far all that I've found is "Griebe" (crackling/greaves) and "Griebs(ch)" (throat/gullet). Hence my need for your expertise!
Thanking you in advance.
