The Porzellanmanufaktur Augarten ("Augarten porcelain manufactory") is named after the palais and park where it is located in Leopoldstadt, Vienna, Austria.

Dating back to a privilege given by the emperor to Claudius Innocentius du Paquier in 1718, it is, after Meissen porcelain, Europe's second oldest producer of hard-paste porcelain. Since 1744, Augarten pieces bear the shield from the coat of arms of the Dukes of Austria as a trademark.^[1]
