Built by: E.F. Walcker & Cie. (1964) - opus 4471
Dismantled (2008)


  • In 1963/1964, under consultancy of Herbert Liedecke, the Walcker company built a three-manual organ for the Klosterkirche in Alpirsbach. The instrument and the organ case were designed in collaboration with Walter Supper. The organ is placed on a gallery on the south side of the church nave. On this gallery, which is separated from the ship by bows, Hauptwerk, Schwellwerk and Pedal were installed together in one organ case. The Positiv was set up separately, as was the free-standing console. The Chor-Orgel stands on a corner of the gallery with an opening to the southern transept. It has its own small console.
  • The organ was dismantled in 2008. A new organ by Claudius Winterhalter was installed in the church.
