Built by: G.F. Steinmeyer und Co. (1957) - opus 1930
Year | Builder | Opus | Activity | 1957 | G.F. Steinmeyer und Co. | 1930 | new organ | 2002 | Klais Orgelbau | 1801 | restoration |
- This organ was donated to the Basilika by the industry in 1952. The starting point for the construction was the specification that had been designed by Riepp in 1740 and the ideas of Dom Bedos. The construction started on January 8, 1952, and the organ was put into operation on June 22, 1957. It is located in three parts: the main organ with its own three-manual console with mechanical keyboard action on the large balcony on the west side of the church, and on either side of this the Récit and the Echo on their own small balconies. There is also a central five-manual console with electric action.
- After a thorough restoration by Klais, the organ was reopened on October 19, 2002 with a festive church service followed by an organ concert by Olivier Latry from Paris.
