The Bischoffsheim lineage represents a Jewish banking family with roots in both Germany and Belgium, tracing back to Raphaël Nathan Bischoffsheim, who was an army supplier from Tauberbischofsheim, within the Electorate of Mainz. This family formed a strong alliance through marriage with the Goldschmidt family of Frankfurt am Main, collaborating across generations to operate the bank Bischoffsheim, Goldschmidt & Cie. In 1863, this banking institution was incorporated into the Banque de Crédit et de Dépôt des Pays-Bas.
