Seiler Pianofortefabrik GmbH is a piano manufacturer in Kitzingen, Germany.

The company was founded by Eduard Seiler in 1849 in Liegnitz, Silesia.[1] By 1923 Seiler was producing up to 3,000 pianos per year, and became the largest piano manufacturer in Eastern Europe.[2] After World War II and the loss of its production facilities, the company moved, first to Denmark and then, from 1961 onward, to the Bavarian town of Kitzingen.[3] In 2008, the company was sold to Samick, a South Korean company.[1] The company emphasizes that the instruments will always be manufactured separately with the Seiler line made in Germany.[1][2]

Seiler now produces about 1,000 pianos annually between the Seiler brand, the mid-level Eduard Seiler brand, and the entry-level Johannes Seiler brand.[2][4]
