The Roman Catholic Church of St. Ludger zu Duisburg - Neudorf is a neo-Gothic basilica built by Dietrich Hofferek in 1897 . What is remarkable about the three-aisled church with a transept is the mighty tower with a pointed helmet, on the edges of which there are four more pointed turrets. Two such turrets can also be found at the ends of the transept. Typical features of the style are the buttress , the three-lane tracery windows and the ribbed vault.
The organ of the Ludgerikirche in Duisburg was the largest church organ in the city of Duisburg until 2009. The previous instrument with a total of 80 stops on four manuals and pedal was built in 1940. Due to the enormous size of the organ, the window above the main portal had to be bricked up. However, the instrument was badly damaged in bombing raids during World War II three years after it was built in 1943 . Only in the 1950s was it possible to think about a new organ. When the organ was rebuilt, the 70 registers initially planned, distributed over four manuals and pedal, became 61 registers on three manuals and pedal. The organ was manufactured in 1961 by the company Orgelbau Romanus Seifert & Sohn from Kevelaer , which had already built the old organ in 1940. Parts of the old organ were taken over. In 2000 the instrument was restored and expanded to a total of 64 registers. The organ was consecrated on October 29, 2000. The restoration work was again carried out by the Seifert organ building company. The disposition is in detail:
