The LEGO Group was founded in 1932 by Ole
Kirk Kristiansen. The company has passed from
father to son and is now owned by Kjeld Kirk
Kristiansen, a grandchild of the founder. It has
come a long way over the past almost 80 years
from a small carpenter’s workshop to a modern,
global enterprise that is now one of the world’s largest manufacturers of
toys. The LEGO brick is our most important product. We are proud to
have been named “Toy of the Century” twice. Our products have
undergone extensive development over the years – but the foundation
remains the traditional LEGO brick.
The brick in its present form was launched in 1958. The interlocking
principle with its tubes makes it unique and offers unlimited building
possibilities. It's just a matter of getting the imagination going – and
letting a wealth of creative ideas emerge through play.
