history

The company emerged from Loeb-Werke AG in 1920 . Its founder and businessman Ludwig Loeb resigned as CEO of Dinos-Automobilwerke Aktiengesellschaft at the end of 1920. In 1922 the Stinnes group bought the company and the brand name Dinos was retained. In the Berlin district of Hohenschönhausen (which initially belonged to the Weißensee administrative district in 1920 ) there was a branch in Goeckestrasse. In 1924 vehicle production was merged with the stock corporation for automobile construction in Berlin-Lichtenberg, and the Dinos cars disappeared from the market.
