The construction of large particle accelerators and storage rings requires the design and fabrication of large numbers of bending, focusing and correction magnets. Normal conducting iron yoke magnets are standard for low fields. Two designs representing efforts for manufacturing cost reduction are discussed. The major part of the paper concentrates on superconducting magnets necessary for high fields. Many details of the well established cos{theta} on or two layer coil design using NbTi superconductor are presented. Peculiarities in the use of Nb{sub 3}Sn superconducting material are mentioned. Examples of alternative superconducting magnet designs are given. Finally the performance of HERA magnets produced in quantity by industry is presented.
