Urban Kreutzbach (1796 - 1868) founded his own workshop in Borna in 1828. By 1903, over 200 organs had been built.

Urban Kreutzbach (1796 - 1868), a student of Carl Gottlob Häcker, founded his own workshop in Borna in 1828. His sons and grandson continued the company until 1903. During this period, over 200 organs were built. Urban Kreutzbach built the organ now in the Auenkirche originally for the St. Martin Church in Elstertrebnitz. I/11. After the Elstertrebnitz church was abandoned, the organ found its new home in the Auenkirche in 1999/2000 after a fundamental overhaul by the Bochmann, Kohren-Sahlis company. Christian Ernst Friederici (1709 - 1780) had already built a new organ in the same place in 1749, I/12 and Alfred Schmeisser (1878 - 1908).
