  Elberfeld - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Elberfeld is a municipal subdivision of the German city of Wuppertal; it was an independent town until 1929.
The first official mentioning of the geographic area on the banks of today's Wupper River as "elverfelde" was in a document of 1161.
In 1929 the towns of Barmen, Elberfeld, Vohwinkel, Cronenberg and Ronsdorf became a municipal entity officially called "Barmen-Elberfeld;" in the same year, the unified city administration through a vote of its councilmembers decided to rename the newly-incorporated city "Wuppertal." This took place in 1930.

Born on January 21, 1868, in Ludwigsburg, Germany, Hoffman studied pharmacy and chemistry at the University of Munich from where he graduated in 1893 with a doctoral degree.
Between 1800 and 1835, chemists in Germany, France and Italy were able to extract salicin, convert it into salicylic acid, and purify it for human consumption, but in this form it was very harsh on people's stomachs.
Germany refused to award a patent for the development of ASA, but the United States disagreed, granting a patent to Hoffman and the Bayer Co. on Feb. 27, 1900 (Patent No. 644,077).

For the past 100 years, it is estimated that one trillion aspirin have been consumed worldwide in order to relieve aches and pains, reduce fevers, fight inflammation, and help fight against cardiovascular disease.
Hoffmann, a chemist with Friedrich Bayer and Co., Elberfeld, Germany, began seeking to find such a pain reliever in order to help ease his father's debilitating rheumatism.
Approximately thirty years later, Hoffmann, determined to help relieve his father's pain in a non-irritating fashion, modified Gerhardt's structure and, on August 10, 1897, he obtained a pure and stable form of acetylsalicylic acid, or aspirin (the name comes from "a" for "acetyl" and "spir" for the spiraea plant).
