Anton Lang (1875 - 1938) was a third-generation German studio potter and an actor in the Oberammergau Passion Play. He played the role of Christ in 1900, 1910, and 1922. His son Karl managed the pottery from 1934 until 1975. Karl’s daughter, Barbara Lampe, took over in 1975 and changed the name of the business to the Barbara Lampe pottery in 1995.
