About us
The author Ulrich Völkel founded the Thuringian RhinoVerlag back in 1993. The program includes, among other things: Architecture and illustrated books, regional and fiction books, art, cooking and historical non-fiction books, especially on the history of Thuringia.
Since 2005, the publishing house has been part of the Verlagsgruppe grünes herz® in Ilmenau. The successful Rhino-Westentaschenbibliothek was launched in 2013 and now has 114 titles. The “Little Rhinos” are gift books with a wide range of topics to convey concise, entertaining and clearly illustrated information. These include advice books on food and health, regional history or aphorisms and biographies. Since 2017, crime novels have supplemented the program as well as other fiction literature, mainly from Thuringian authors.
