Gaggenau is a small town at the northern edge of

the Black Forest, Germany. Here, following the 30

Years’ War in 1683, Count Ludwig Wilhelm von Baden

approved the establishment of hammer and nail

factories. Iron ore had been discovered in the nearby

Murg River valley and the area became a destination

for poverty-stricken farmers looking for employment.

Gaggenau had a turbulent history, going through

difficult periods, revolutions, various ruling powers

and the ups and downs of economic cycles. In the

1880’s when the Industrial Revolution helped people

with thousands of ideas, the Gaggenau local factory

was known as a place where new products came to

life. It manufactured bicycles, enameled signs, coal

and gas stoves and much more.

Gaggenau’s rise to an internationally known

luxury brand began after World War ll. In 1961, Georg

von Blanquet, a passionate amateur cook, took the

reins of the factory. He developed modern Gaggenau

kitchen technology and began to manufacture

top-quality built-in appliances.

Since then, Gaggenau kitchen appliances have

been characterized by special practical benefits, top

quality materials and finish and, in particular, the

simple elegance of their functional shapes. Today,

discerning people all over the world associate

Gaggenau with the very best of kitchen technology.

The difference is Gaggenau.
