Johannus Orgelbouw is a Dutch builder of electronic organs for home and church use, located in Ede, Netherlands. The organ manufacturer was founded in 1968 by Johannes (Hans) Versteegt (1928–2011), who had previously designed electronic organs for Eminent and Viscount. The Johannus prototypes were developed in the facility at Prins Hendriklaan in Ede. ==History== In 1971 the factory started production at Tuinstraat in Veenendaal and the Johannus organs were introduced at the Firato exhibition in Amsterdam. From there, Johannus organs went all over Europe. In 1976 a new factory was built at Morsestraat 28 in Ede. The factory had an auditorium named after famous Dutch organist Feike Asma (1912–1984). Hans expanded the company’s export activities to the USA, Canada, South Africa, Australia, and other countries. In 1985 Hans Versteegt retired. In 1987 Gert van de Weerd acquired Johannus, introducing real-time sampling in digital organ technology, and increased organ sales in many countries. In 2002 a new headquarters and production facility was inaugurated at Keplerlaan 2 in Ede. Built in late 19th-century style, the new headquarters has a concert hall that seats 330. In 2009 Gert van de Weerd retired and handed Johannus over to his two sons, Marco van de Weerd (Marketing & Sales) and René van de Weerd (Research & Development). In 2014 Johannus reached an export level into more than 100 countries in the world. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Johannus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
