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.
Cornelis Drebbel from Netherlands is credited with the building of the first microscope in 1 620.
The first microscope was a simple handheld magnifying glass, known as a "simple microscope." It had a single convex lens and was used to magnify small objects. The compound microscope, with two lenses for greater magnification, was developed later.

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.
