DKW, from Dampf-Kraft-Wagen (German: "steam-driven car"), was a historic brand of motorcycles and cars. It was founded in 1916 by Danish engineer Jørgen Skafte Rasmussen, who established the factory in Zschopau, Saxony (Germany) to produce spare parts for steam engines. In the same year he tried to produce a steam-powered car, which he called "DKW". In 1919 he built a two-stroke, toy engine, without success; he called it Des Knaben Wunsch - "a child's wish". He put a slightly modified version of this engine into a motorcycle and called it Das Kleine Wunder - "a little wonder". This was the real beginning of the DKW brand, which in the 1930s was the world's largest producer of motorcycles.
