Description nr.: 2004946.
Built by: Reiser Orgelbau (1958)
After the closure of the Abbey of Zwiefalten in 1808, Joseph Martin's main organ from 1771 was sold and transferred to the main church of Stuttgart, where it remained in a modified form until 1944. In 1812 the church was dedicated as a parish church, and the choir organ was given the role of main organ. It was relocated to the west gallery. In 1956 the choir organ was placed back in the choir and the company Reiser built a new large main organ, designed by Walter Supper, Gregor Klaus and Karl Löffler. The instrument was overhauled in 1981/1982.
