Porzellanmanufaktur Fürstenberg was established on 11 January 1747 in Fürstenberg an der Weser by Johann Georg von Langen on behalf of Duke Carl I. of Brunswick-Wolfenbuettel. The production started after 6 years thanks to a technology brought by the artist who left Hochst. In 1753, the Duke ordered that in the future all porcelain items should be marked with a blue F.

The Fürstenberg Porcelain factory is the second oldest German china producer. Older is only famous Meissen Porcelain Factory. In 1859, the manufactory was leased to private individuals and was finally converted into a public stock company in 1888. In 1966 it became a limited liability company (GmbH). The factory is still producing porcelain today.
