The internationally recognized Majolika Keramik Manufaktur Karlsruhe was founded in 1901 by Grand Duke Friedrich I. The artistic initiators were Hans Thoma, graphic artist and painter, and Wilhelm Süs.

In its more than 110-year history, the "majolica" has had a very glittering time. Their distinctive products were in demand and appreciated worldwide soon after their founding. At the 1904 World Fair in St. Louis (USA), the majolica was awarded a gold medal for her work.

Hans Thoma's trademark, designed in 1901, has essentially remained unchanged to this day. It shows the Baden coat of arms with the Grand Duke's crown and a double "M" for majolica manufacture.

The only existing ceramic manufactory in Germany, which has survived all crises, produces still today in the same place. Since August 2011, the newly founded Majolika Foundation for Arts and Culture Promotion Karlsruhe has been the sole shareholder of the company.
