“We look back on over 50 years of Portuguese-German company history, while at the same time looking to the future. Innovation, precision and craftsmanship remain our focus, both in Famalicão and in Wetzlar.”

Pedro Oliveira & Vitor Freitas, Managing Directors and Executive Board Members Leica Famalicão

Anchored in tradition and technical expertise.

For more than a century, our quest for perfection has shaped the development of optical masterpieces.

With the Binocle 6×18 in 1907, Dr. Ernst Leitz laid the foundation for our family of binoculars. Ever since, we have been anchored in precision and craftsmanship – since 1973 also in Portugal – with the same passion for the highest optical performance and quality.

Our history inspires us to continue merging innovation and tradition – now and in the future.
