Königliche Porzellan-Manufaktur Berlin

The manufactory was founded in 1763 by Frederick the Great. It was based on three private companies that had tried for a while to produce porcelain in Berlin. The manufactory has been located near the Tiergarten in Berlin since 1871. It took up the production of painted porcelain tiles under the direction of Professor Alexander Kips and made a huge profit. After the destruction of the manufactory during the Second World War, the land Berlin took over the company in 1988. Since 2006, the company has been owned by Jörg Woltmann.
