AUGUST FÖRSTER Today

Currently, AUGUST FÖRSTER employs a staff of 39 people who produce approximately 60 grand pianos and 120 upright pianos every year. Customers and interested parties have the opportunity to take a tour of our production facilities, to see us hand-crafting the instruments in person. For many of our customers, this chance to witness the creation of “their instrument” is an increasingly vital aspect of the process.
