1600's
1590s
The first microscope was called the "simple microscope" or "single lens microscope". It was developed in the late 16th century and consisted of a single convex lens used to magnify small objects.
The microscope was first discovered by Dutch spectacle makers Zacharias Janssen and his father Hans in the late 16th century. They developed an early version of the compound microscope using lenses in a tube.
The first two-lens microscope, known as the compound microscope, was developed by Zacharias Janssen, a Dutch spectacle maker, in the late 16th century. He is often credited with creating this early optical instrument around 1590, although his father, Hans Janssen, may have also played a role in its invention. The compound microscope significantly advanced the study of microorganisms and laid the groundwork for modern microscopy.
Cornelis Drebbel from Netherlands is credited with the building of the first microscope in 1 620.
1590s
compound light microscope - cell theory - electron microscope
Robert Hooke invented the first compound microscope.
The first compound or multi -lens microscope was developed in Holland in 1590 by Hans Janssen and Zacharias.

The compound light microscope came first, dating back to the late 16th century. The electron microscope was developed much later in the early 20th century.

The first microscope to be developed was the optical microscope, although the original inventor is not easy to identify. Two eyeglass makers are variously given credit: Hans Lippershey (who developed an early telescope) and Zacharias Janssen
The first compound microscope, developed by Zacharias Janssen in the 1590s, was likely to have weighed around 1-2 pounds.
