Gerhardt organ in the manor church of Kleinliebenau

Klangkörper & Ensemble
The organ in Kleinliebenau was built around 1880 using older parts.
Friedrich Gerhardt (1826 - 1922) from Kölleda learned organ building from ES Hesse in Dachwig near Erfurt. He then worked for Kreutzbach (Borna), Buchholz (Berlin) and Schmidt (Oldenburg), among others. In 1853 he founded his own company in Kölleda. From 1863 to 1894 he had his workshop in Merseburg. The current list of works includes 48 organs. The organ in Kleinliebenau was built around 1880 using older parts (pedal wind chest and two wedge bellows). The contract has not yet been found. In 1918 the disposition was expanded to include the register Gambe 8'. I/6. In 2012 a fundamental restoration was carried out by the restoration workshop Joh. Lindner (Radebeul).
