About

Hans Caspar Escher (1775–1859) was an architect and politician. They were born in Zurich.

In context

Escher Wyss & Cie. was founded in 1805 and closed in 1969, after 164 years. Among the 25 other manufacture of machinery and equipment companies we hold, those that closed lasted a median of 78 years, so this one outlasted most of them.
