The Orgelwerkstatt Wegscheider, established in 1989 by Kristian Wegscheider in Dresden, is a prominent organ-building company known for its dedication to both the construction of new organs and the restoration of historic instruments. Wegscheider, born in 1954 in Ahrenshoop, Germany, had extensive training in organ building and restoration before founding his own workshop. His company has built around 50 new organs and carried out more than 60 restorations, making significant contributions to the preservation and revitalization of historic organs across Germany and beyond.

Wegscheider's workshop is particularly noted for its careful and historically informed approach to restoration, having worked on important projects such as the organs in St. Nikolai Church and the Marienkirche in Stralsund, and the Silbermann organ in Dresden's Catholic Hofkirche. The workshop also gained attention for its innovative construction techniques, including the development of organs that can be played in different temperaments, allowing for a versatile range of musical expression. These innovations and the workshop's commitment to craftsmanship have established the Orgelwerkstatt Wegscheider as a key player in the field of organ building and restoration.
