Someone recently told me birthdays this year don't count - but in this case I think we can make an exception.
On Monday, August 10th, The LEGO Group had a birthday. Although we're a couple days late, this is still worth celebrating!
The following is written by Signe Wiese, Corporate Historian:
[On] August 10th, we celebrated the 88th anniversary of the LEGO Group. 88 years ago, in 1932, LEGO® founder Ole Kirk Kristiansen produced the first pieces of wooden toys in his workshop in Billund. And – as they say – the rest is history. (pretty great history, if you ask us 😉)
This photo of Godtfred Kirk Christiansen and Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen raising the flags in front of the old LEGO headquarter is from 1982, when the LEGO Group celebrated its 50th anniversary.
