Hammerich & Lesser was a German publishing house.

  • Johann Friedrich Hammereich Verlag

Johann Friedrich Hammerich (1763–1827) founded a publishing house in 1789. Politically, Altona has long been more progressive than the neighboring city of Hamburg. He benefited from the milder press censorship. Numerous magazines and periodicals appeared here. The publishing house was run under the name "Johann Friedrich Hammerich" until around 1850.

In 1811 Johann Friedrich Hammerich began working with Peter Hermann Heineking. The collaboration ended with the death of Hammerich. In the following years Heineking ran a painting business. In 1827 the printing house was taken over by Ernst Friedrich Hammerich and Wilhelm Boye Theodor Lesser and in the following years operated as

Johann Friedrich Hammerich had founded a bookshop in Altona in 1789. Otto Karl Theodor Busch (1791–1825) started as an assistant here in 1813. Hammerich Busch sold the bookstore in 1819. Theodor Busch's widow ran the bookstore until 1827 and sold it to Karl Aue. Aue also built up a publishing business. In 1841 he sold the bookstore to Carl Theodor Schlueter.

In 1909 Hinrich Springer became a partner in the company. Since 1912 he has published the weekly Altonaer Bürgerzeitung , and since 1924 the successful Altonaer Nachrichten .
