Carl Heyder (organ builder)

Company sign, organ in Helstorf 1864

Carl Heyder (* May 7, 1821 in Singen , Thuringia ; † May 21, 1902 in Mühlhausen / Thuringia ) was a German organ builder.

Life

He apprenticed to Johann Friedrich Schulze in the neighboring Paulinzella and then worked as a journeyman, presumably with Friedrich Knauf in Großtabarz, in Halle ad Saale (with Wäldner?) And finally with Gottlieb Knauf in Bleicherode. In 1847 he opened his own workshop in Glasehausen (Eichsfeld), which he moved to Heiligenstadt the following year. In 1868 he moved to Mühlhausen.
