The Guggenheim family refers to a number of descendants of Meyer Guggenheim who were known for their global successes in mining and smelting (notably the American Smelting And Refining Company), for possessing one of the largest fortunes in the world during the 19th century, and later for their philanthropy in diverse areas such as modern art and aviation, including several Guggenheim Museums as well as the Guggenheim Aeronautical Laboratory and I.
