Daniel Wroblewsky, born on May 24, 1744, in Lissewen, Masuren, in what was then the Kingdom of Prussia, and died on April 10, 1818, in Copenhagen, was a prominent Polish organ builder whose career flourished in Denmark and Norway. His early training in the craft began in 1762 under Johann Christoph Ungefug. Wroblewsky further honed his skills with notable organ builders like Adam Gottlob Casparini in Königsberg and Friedrich Rudolf Dalitz in Danzig. His journey took a decisive turn in 1770 when he moved to Copenhagen, where he initially worked with Christian Ferdinand Speer.
Despite early struggles, including a failed attempt to obtain citizenship and a license as an instrument builder in 1774, Wroblewsky's persistence paid off. By 1775, he had completed his first organ build. His reputation continued to grow, and in 1780, he was finally granted citizenship in Copenhagen along with a comprehensive license to build not only organs but also clavichords, harpsichords, harps, and other instruments. Wroblewsky's contributions to the musical landscape of Scandinavia were significant, crafting instruments noted for their quality and craftsmanship. He passed away in 1818 and was buried at the Petrikirche in Copenhagen, leaving behind a legacy of musical craftsmanship that had a lasting impact on the region.
