The mechanic Emil Steindorff founded a factory for scientific instruments in the Reichenberger Straße in Berlin in 1879. In 1915 the owners were Otto and Emil Steindorff. In 1925 the firm was called Steindorff & Co. and two years later the firm started to trade with the name "optisch-mechanische Fabrik Steindorff & Co.". During the last days of the WWII the factory was destroyed but in 1951 a firm called Steindorff of America Inc. was founded in the USA to distribute the microscopes. Then the firm is in Berlin again and in the 80s it becomes the "optisch-mechanische Fabrik Steindorff & Co. GmbH".
