Berlin, Deutschland (Berlin) - Eosanderkapelle Schloss Charlottenburg
Municipal: Berlin
Address: Spandauer Damm 10-22, 14059, Berlin
Website: https://www.spsg.de/
Description nr.: 2000738.
Built by: Karl Schuke (1969) - opus 230
The Swedish architect Johann Friedrich Eosander Goethe designed a beautiful interior in the castle chapel of Charlottenburg. Arp Schnitger was commissioned to build an organ in this chapel. Because there was actually no room, it was set up in a special way: the Rückpositiv came to the foreground, while the pedal and Hauptwerk were placed behind an arch. The instrument remained unchanged for a long time. In 1943 it was decided to dismantle it and store it in order to protect it from bombing. However, during a heavy bombardment it was completely lost together with the boxes in which it was packed. After the war, Schuke reconstructed the organ based on old drawings and his own memory. The instrument, with opus number 230 by Schuke, was dedicated in 1969.
