  • The Kulturpalast on the Altmarkt in Dresden is a concert hall that opened in 1969. The building was designed by Wolfgang Hänsch. The facade fills the entire north side of the Altmarkt. In 1970, the Jehmlich company supplied a two-manual organ with 24 stops for the concert hall. The console was made movable so that it could be removed from the stage when the organ was not in use.
  • In 2013/2014, a major renovation of the Kulturpalast started. The Eule company has been commissioned to design a new organ for the new concert hall. This organ was completed in 2017. The old instrument was demolished in 2012 and, after an overhaul by the Jehmlich company, was rebuilt in 2015 in the Propsteikirche Sankte Maria Königin in Cottbus.
