Willhelm Kenngott was a German company that made lenses and folding plate cameras. It was based in Stuttgart. The company was wound up in 1932.

McKeown states that Kenngott had a subsidiary that made lenses in Paris;[1] However, the Lens Vade Mecum lists this company as P. Kengott, and lists lenses dated rather earlier, in the first decade of the 20th century.[2]
