The family-owned business has its roots in Gosheim, Swabian Alb, Germany. Hermle manufactures and distributes premium quality clocks, which are admired worldwide. In addition to our Germany-based manufactory in Gosheim, Hermle clocks are also built in Amherst, Virginia. Nestled in the scenic foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia, Hermle Black Forest Clocks began manufacturing mechanical movements in the USA in 1977. This marked a new chapter of growth for the company as Hermle was able to utilze American and imported hardwoods to supply case goods for highly sought-after German quality mechanisms. The Amherst plant specializes in traditional hardwood floor, grandfather, wall, and mantel clock cases, with German movements and accessories. Some of the styles are based on early American tradition, and one is even a licensed Colonial Williamsburg reproduction. Hermle Black Forest Clocks rebranded as Hermle North America in January 2011 to reflect our vision of our place in the future - the one-stop shop for all genuine Hermle products, including carrying the largest Hermle and Urgos movement selections available to the trade in the world. 

While classic floor clocks or grandfather clocks capture the style and culture of the past, Hermle's new design in floor clocks display creativity and ingenuity with a look toward the future. Likewise, Hermle’s mantel clocks, both functional and beautiful, are designed to impress. Minimalistic design and and technical perfection merge and help one forget time altogether. Honoring the past and embracing the future: it's easy to do either - or both - with a timepiece from Hermle Clocks!
