Disposition and history Originally equipped with a pneumatic action mechanism, Ferdinand Molzer converted to an electric action mechanism in 1937. At an unknown point in time - at least before 1976 - the organ was probably expanded to 51 stops. In 1976 the parish commissioned a renovation, but it did not show a satisfactory result until 1979. For this reason, the organ was initially shut down and finally replaced from 1985 to 1989 by a new instrument from Rieger Orgelbau . |
