Trampeli organ in the Lutheran church in Gerichshain
The founder of the Adorf organ building company is Johann Paul Trampel (1708 - 1764). Like Friderici and Donati, his son Johann Gottlob (1742 - 1812) Italianized the name Trampel to Trampeli. Together with his brother Christian Wilhelm (1748 - 1803), he built the organ in Gerichshain in the years 1802/03. Friedrich Wilhelm Trampeli (1790 - 1832), son of Christian Wilhelm, continued his uncle's workshop. In 1832, the workshop ceased its activities. Unfortunately, the Gerichshain organ was redisposed of around 1850 and in 1886, changes were made to the channel system. The specification corresponds again to the time of origin.
