Anton Schneider began producing cuckoo clocks in 1848 in his
farmhouse in Schonach. The business is now in the 6th generation and has been
producing high value cuckoo clocks at its current location since 1952. In the
years between 1952 an 1985 the present modern factory building was extended in 7
periods of construction. Presently this clock factory is among the most modern
and largest cuckoo clock factories in the Black Forest. In spite of this, the
old tradition of doing valuable carving work by hand has been maintained and in
the last few years even greatly improved. This required intensive training of
young woodcarvers under their direction.
The love for details combined with ancient handicraft skills are today the
characteristics of the new generation of high-value cuckoo clocks. Thanks to the
highly skilled workers in the carpentry, the woodcarving and in the clock
assembly as well as an extremely impeccable final inspection.
The company employs highly qualified workers, most of whom have worked for the
last 20 to 40 years. Every worker is specialized in the quality production of
high value cuckoo clocks. This is emphasized by their leading position in the
production of cuckoo clocks with music and dancing figurines as well as those
with moving scenes and hand carved figurines.
The product range has more than 300 cuckoo clock models from 19 cm to 300 cm and
in 9 different color tones.
