Make your vacation safer: take out insurance with our partner ERGO!

In 1905, Hungarian timber merchant Max von Engel had an idea to create a unique company dealing with luggage insurance. This idea became a reality in 1907, when von Engel began collaborating with Carl von Thieme, founder of the Munich Reinsurance Company. They developed a simple and innovative concept: travelers could take out luggage insurance directly at the checkout desk before setting off on their journey.

On May 9, 1907, Europäische Güter- und Reisegepäckversicherungs AG was registered in Budapest. In its early days, the company served customers who traveled mainly by train. With the development of transportation infrastructure and the increase in the number of sea shipments, the baggage insurance service began to attract the attention not only of train passengers, but also of those who traveled by ship. Soon after entering the era of air transportation, the company started offering its services to air passengers as well. This was an important step to expand its customer base and make travel insurance more accessible.

Today, Europäische Güter- und Reisegepäckversicherungs AG, known as ERGO, is present in 23 countries. It operates internationally with an extensive network of branches, subsidiaries and partners, providing its customers with reliable protection and confidence when traveling.
