In their own words

“The LEGO Group is a privately held company based in Billund, Denmark. The name ‘LEGO’ is an abbreviation of the two Danish words “leg godt”, meaning “play well”. The LEGO Group was founded in 1932 by Ole Kirk Kristiansen. The company has passed from father to son and is now owned by Thomas Kirk Kristiansen, a great-grandchild of the founder.…”
