A. Lange and Sohne currently welcomes everyone interested to visit a unique exhibition organized at the premises of the Company in Glashutte. The exhibition called ‘From Dresden to Glashutte – the roots of precision watchmaking in Saxony’ displays the selected timepieces that make part of the collection of the ‘Mathematisch-Physikalischen Salon.’ The collection keeps track of the precision watchmaking evolution at the Court of Saxony to the establishment of the horological industry in the Ore Mountains.

Before the selected part of the collection moved to Glashutte, its historically important timepieces were housed in the Mathematisch-Physikalischen Salon in the Dresdner Zwinger. The collection represents one of the most important and interesting horological collections in the world. It sheds the light to the history of producing precision clocks and watches in the period from the 16th to 19the century, which reached its peak in Europe at that time.

The art of watchmaking in Saxony was really prominent. Being supported by the Electors of Saxony and August the Strong in particular, the watchmaking in the region had reached a remarkable level of achievement by the early 19th century. The city had gained the prestigious reputation as the center of clock- and watch-production, and its fame crossed the borders of Saxony and extended far beyond.

The Court Watchmakers and Principals who belonged to the Mathematisch-Physikalischen Salon, with such famous names as Seyffert, Schumann and Gutkaes, introduced brilliant constructional ideas. They became the protagonists of a success story that led to the foundation of the watchmaking industry in Glashutte in 1845 by the Dresdner Ferdinand Adolph Lange.

In spring 2007, the Mathematisch-Physikalische Salon was closed for conducting thorough renovation work. It will be reopened only in 2009 and is meant to comprise almost double the display area by that time. At the moment 40 selected exhibits from the horological collection of the Salon are displayed at the premises of A. Lange and Sohne in Glashutte.
