Enigma Timeline
This page is currently under construction

This page will eventually hold a timeline with all Enigma-related events, from the invention, to WWII. Below is currently an attempt to create a usable timeline. Please note that the contents of the table are by no means correct and are therefore subject to changes in the future. Eventually, it is our aim to make all items in the table clickable.

Patents
From the timeline above, it seems that most patents were filed before WWII and that no new patents were filed during the war. This is in fact not true, as the developer Heimsoeth und Rinke had an active track record of developing new products and improvements, most of which were secretly filed during the war. At the end of the war the secret patent registers were either destroyed or confiscated by the enemy.
 
Copyright
The current version of the above timeline is currently not available for download and may not be copied or used without prior consent from us. As soon as the timeline is in a more 'mature' state, it will be made available under the same conditions as the Enigma Family Tree.
