In 1876 in Vienna, Carl Reichert founded the Optische Werke C. Reichert. He had married into the Leitz family two years earlier and so employed some Leitz technicians. This may explain why his products were so similar to those of Ernst Leitz of Wetzlar.
Among other things, Reichert designed new lenses, lighting equipment for microscopes, a heating microscope (1909), and one of the first microscopes for the study of metal surfaces.
By 1900, the company had produced 30,000 microscopes.
Although Reichert instruments are usually signed "C. Reichert, Wien," the proper name of the firm was "Optische Werke C. Reichert." The firm was partially sold to American Optical in 1962 and fully taken over in 1972.
