The Irrlehrer line earned its first claim in history through Merkur by Irrlehrer. Merkur\\\'s son, Nurmi, won individual and team gold medals at the 1936 Berlin Olympics as a three-day eventer. His rider Ludwig Stubbendorff, was killed in action only three years later in the war. All German one-day events are called Stubbendorff Trials in his honor.
