Elias Hößler

Elias Hößler (7 July 1663 in Crimmitschau, Saxony – 13 June 1746 in Sulzbach-Rosenberg) was from Saxony originally, active in the Upper Palatinate and Franconia as a pipe organ builder.

He began organ building teaching near Andreas Haß in Greiz in Vogtland, and later moved to Hersbruck. On 21 October 1704, he became a resident of Lauf in der Nähe near Nuremberg. He preferred to work in the Nuremberg area and in the western and central Upper Palatinate. In 1744, he retired to a hospital in Sulzbach-Rosenberg.

gollark: I'm not aware of new phones with good custom ROM support, no ridiculous notch thingy, replaceable batteries, any durability at all, and reasonably sized (~5") screens.
gollark: I mean, I could get a notverysmartphone, sure, but I like being able to use highly advanced features like a "web browser".
gollark: Er, phones now, not phone snow. I don't know what phone snow is and I hope I never have to.
gollark: Its battery seems to have degraded almost to the point of uselessness by now, and it's nonreplaceable, so I've been vaguely looking into replacements, but it turns out that there are no good phone snow.
gollark: I think mine would explode if I tried that.
