What you’ll find

What Junghans is known for

Max Bill’s Bauhaus watch perfected — Schramberg precision since 1861, once the world’s largest watchmaker. Terrassenbau (1916–18), industrial architect Philipp Jakob Manz: nine stepped floors designed so workstations receive daylight. Now the company museum; shop on site (Tue–Sun).
