Schantz Organ Co.

(Most of the early instruments were modest in size and found within a couple of hundred miles of the workshop in Orrville.)

It was under the leadership of the third generation (following World War II) that the company developed its national reputation.

Commissions for the firm include projects ranging in scope from restoration of existing instrument to the construction of an entirely new organ, and in size from small organs of a few ranks to complex designs for large halls, churches and cathedrals.

The firm's magnum opus (of 154 ranks) stands in the Cathedral of the Sacred Heart in Newark, New Jersey.

[3] The building complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2021 for its longevity in the design, manufacture, and distribution of pipe organs.
