German Smoker Men The origin story of German Rauchermann While incense has been around for thousands of years, the German Smokers, or Rauchermen, originated in the late 1600s in the Miriquidi Forest area of south-eastern Germany. The first German Smokers were carved from a single piece of wood and made into small figurines that resembled German villagers. The first Rauchermen (or Rauchermann in German) were designed to be placed next to a tray of incense as a decorative piece. The Incense cones were developed in the late 1700s and German smokers are now made from two pieces of wood that fit together to create one body, allowing the incense to be placed within the figurine.
