Our History
WINORA: German brand tradition since 1914
In 1914, the cyclist Engelbert Wiener founded E. Wiener GmbH in Schweinfurt. The company specialized in both the manufacturing and distribution of bicycles through individual assembly.
By 1918, the first bicycle wholesale business was established in Schweinfurt and expanded continuously in the following years. In 1956, Bernd Seuffert, the grandson of the company's founder, took over the business. At that time, the company was already producing approximately 6,000 bicycles annually.
In 1963, the first Winora bicycle factory in Schweinfurt was built with an assembly line system. In the early 1980s, another bicycle factory was established to meet the growing demand, which was prompted by the oil crisis and an increasing awareness of health.
A story of innovative strength
More than 100 years ago, our founder Engelbert Wiener recognized that cycling doesn't just captivate adults.
He handcrafted the very first children's bikes for his daughters and embarked on tours with the family. Shortly thereafter, the "Wiener original bike" became WINORA.
