DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
The organ was built by Joseph Lorenz, a German-American organ builder who first lived in Cincinnati, OH and then relocated to Saint Paul, MN in 1882-83. Vogelpohl and Spaeth installed a new console and electropneumatic pulldowns to the organ in the late 1930s or early 1940s, and also removed all reed stops and the Great Mixture III. Instrument was then restored and retrackerized by local builder K.C. Marrin in 2000, who built a new console to the original specifications and added new ranks that replicated all of the ones that were removed.
