Lambrecht
Wilhelm Lambrecht started making measuring instruments in Einbeck in 1859. In 1864 he opened a factory in Goettingen. He developed a hair hygrometer sometime around 1867. In 1873 he started building meteorological instruments such as psychrometers and polymeters. Wilhelm Lambrecht died in 1904 but his company remains a major instrument manufacturer still located in Goettingen. It was called 'W. Lambrecht KG' after 1923 and 'Wilh Lambrecht GmbH' after 1980.
