About Klann


It was 1898 when August Klann immigrated from Germany to the United States. As a cabinet maker by trade, he started working for a pipe organ builder in San Francisco build ing organ cases and cabinets. After the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, he moved to Alliance, Ohio where he started Klann Organ Supply in 1910.

In 1916, he moved the business to Basic, Virginia (which later merged with Waynesboro) to be closer to his largest customer, Barckhoff Organ Company. In those days, organ chest magnets were the main product, but over the years the product line was exp anded to include most of the components necessary to build a complete pipe organ.

Being the oldest pipe organ supply house in North America, Klann Organ Supply is proud of it's heritage since 1910. Our experienced personnel take pride in their work and our commitment to produce quality organ parts and supplied will never change.
