Here is the location of the Lego office and Factory location. This post was created after reading some interviews over on Gizmodo.

The name ‘LEGO’ is an abbreviation of the two Danish words “leg godt”, meaning “play well”. ItΓÇÖs our name and itΓÇÖs our ideal. The LEGO Group was founded in 1932 by Ole Kirk Christiansen. The Company has passed from father to son and is now owned by Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen, a grandchild of the founder. It has come a long way over the past 70 years – from a small carpenterΓÇÖs workshop to a modern, global enterprise that is now, in terms of sales, the worldΓÇÖs sixth-largest manufacturer of toys. – Official Site
