Karl Rönisch
Karl Rönisch is a piano manufacturer in Dresden, Germany.
The owner Karl Moritz Hermann Rönisch was awarded an imperial and royal warrant of appointment to the court of Austria-Hungary.[1]
The company exported to Russia and to avoid high tariffs, built a factory in St. Petersburg in 1897, parts for which were still manufactured in Dresden, in the main factory.[2]
In 2009, the company merged with Blüthner and the production was moved to Blüthner factory in Leipzig, Germany.[3][4]
