Hermitage Lighting Gallery


Hermitage Lighting Gallery offers far more than the name implies. This expansive retail showplace provides decorative solutions for every room in the house. A vast array of light fixtures, kitchen cabinetry, appliances, antique furniture, mirrors, and luxurious bath products fill  the Gallery, which is located minutes from downtown.


History

The Tenzel/Fleischer family has been lighting the way for three generations. Hermitage Lighting Gallery was founded in 1944 by the late Jack Tenzel. In 1954, Tenzel's son-in-law, Gerald Fleischer, joined the company and subsequently became President. Today, Tenzel's daughter, Doris Fleischer, serves as Secretary/Treasurer, and Gerald acts as Chairman of the Board. Their son, Jack Fleischer, succeeded Gerald as President in 1996.

"Our long history in this business sends a positive message to our customers. We are stable, reliable, and we try to do the right thing," says Jack Fleischer. "We have a very strong referral business with many loyal customers."
