On February 27, 1584, Duke Erich of Germany issued a proclamation stating that papermaker Martin Spies was allowed to establish a paper mill to supply His Highness and His Domain with fine handmade papers. In 1886, the new owner, Carl Hahne, gave the mill the name Hahnemühle, and became the regular supplier of many European houses of nobility.
Buttenpapierfabrik Hahnemühle installed their first cylinder machines in 1925, yet continued to make handmade sheets until 1967 when it converted entirely to mouldmade production. The mill has been highly regarded by many of the world's finest printing houses and continues to advance in production for all techniques, including digital reproduction.
