Zacharias Janssen was the first person to invent the microscope and the kind of microscope he made was a compound microscope--a microscope that uses two or more sets of lenses. Plus, the first compound microscope (by Zacharias) was made around 1595 in Middleburg, Holland.

Isaac newton did not invent the first microscope. The first compound microscope is often attributed to Zacharias Janssen in the late 16th century. Newton is best known for his work in mathematics and physics, such as the laws of motion and universal gravitation.

yes he did he was the firs one to invent the micrscope

Wow, NO. Newton did not invent the first microscope, or any microscope. He is famous for constructing an improved reflecting telescope, but he did not invent the reflecting telescope either.

No one is sure who invented the first microscope, although it was probably in the Netherlands in the 1620s.
