LEGO is one of the world’s most famous toy brands, best known for its colorful building blocks. The company was founded in 1932 by Danish carpenter Ole Kirk Christiansen. Originally, he made wooden toys, but in 1949, LEGO began producing plastic building blocks. The name “LEGO” comes from the Danish words “leg godt,” which means “play well.”

In 1958, the iconic stud system was introduced, which made the bricks click together securely. This allowed for endless building possibilities and ensured that LEGO bricks from different generations are still compatible.
