Hohner Musikinstrumente GmbH & Co. KG is a company specialising in the manufacture of musical instruments.

Founded in 1857 by Matthias Hohner (1833-1902), Hohner is identified especially with harmonicas and accordions. The Hohner company has invented and produced many different styles, and most of the harmonicas used by professionals. The company also makes kazoos, recorder flutes, melodicas, guitars, bass guitars and ukuleles (under the brand name Lanikai), along with its one million harmonicas a year.

During the 1960s and 1970, the company also manufactured a range of innovative and popular electromechanical keyboard instruments; the Cembalet, Pianet, Guitaret, and Clavinet.

The roots of the Hohner firm are in Trossingen, (South Germany).
