Hermle Clocks History
Nearly one hundred years ago, Franz Hermle began
manufacturing and selling mechanical clocks. In 1922, Franz Hermle
founded the Franz Hermle Clock Company in Gosheim/Wuerttemberg,
Germany. Within ten years the company became known as one of the
most modern and efficient manufacturers of clock movements in the
clock industry. Franz Hermle and his sons' dedication weathered
the effects of WWII and made Franz Hermle and Sohn, prosper while
other companies capitulated.
The founder, Franz Hermle, died in 1953 and left a modern
and prosperous operation to his sons Gebhard, Alfred, Hans and
Heinrich Hermle. They have continued to build the company into a
worldwide leader in the manufacturing of clocks, and mechanical
clock movements.
Now in its third generation, Franz Hermle and Sohn
employs over 500 people in 4 locations in Germany and an
additional manufacturing facility, Hermle Black Forest Clocks, in
Amherst, Virginia, USA. We export clocks and clock movements to
more than 100 countries worldwide and are dedicated to leading the
industry in computerized and automated precision manufactured
clock parts and mechanical and quartz movements.
