Organería Española

OESA, Organería Española S.A., “An organ for each Church, and each Church its organ”, with this slogan Organería Española was born, company led by Agustín González de Amezúa y Mayo as President, that was proposed after the end of the Civil War, recover or build new organs in those churches that had lost them.

In 1940 with this need to build new organs, and as director of the company Ramón González de Amezúa (who was Director of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Fernando of Madrid), and as Manager Rafael Puignau, Organería Española (O.E.S.A) begins its journey in Azpeitia, in the building built in 1915 by the Casa Eleizgaray y Cia.

Little by little, the Alberdi firms from Barcelona became federated in this Spanish Organism Society, representative for the area of ??Catalonia, Barleares and Valencia, and the Estadella firm. Organería Española (O.E.S.A) ceased its activity in the years 1974 – 1975.
