Biography

Together with his Swiss wife Marguerite Kaempff-Kohler, Pierre Kaempff founded a pastry shop in the city center of Luxembourg in 1922. The business Kaempff-Kohler is still located in the same place and is still run by the family, but has developed into a successful delicatessen and catering brand. Kaempff’s participation at the 1928 Winter Olympics was his only known sporting activity, but he was also probably active in cycling.
