Municipal: Saint-Imier
Address: Rue du Temple, 2610, Saint-Imier
Description nr.: 2001278.
Built by: Manufacture d'Orgues de Saint-Martin (1986)
In 1986, the Manufacture d'Orgues de Saint-Martin completed a new organ with forty stops for the Église Collégiale in Saint-Imier. The instrument replaced an electro-pneumatic organ, which was virtually no longer functioning. The organ was revised by Peter Wells in 2009-2010, on the advice of the church's organist, Martin Kasparek. The stop list was modified and the pipes were revoiced. On February 14, 2010 the organ was put back into use with a concert by Martin Kasparek.
