1915 Manufacture Dalstein-Haerpfer  new organ
1998 Orgelbau Kuhn AG  rebuild

  • In 1912 Albert Schweitzer designed a new organ for the Temple Saint-Jean-de-Cour in Lausanne. The organ was built by the firm Dalstein & Härpfer and was inaugurated on September 5, 1915. The instrument was built with pneumatic cone chests. It is a good example of an organ from the time of the Organ Reform. In 1947 and 1962 the instrument was overhauled and some stops were added. The organ case was also modified in 1962.
  • Because the organ showed many malfunctions, the Kuhn company was commissioned in 1997 to rebuild the organ with mechanical slider chests. The pipework has been taken over in its entirety, including the added stops from 1947 and 1962. The case has been returned to its original state. Kuhn added a Basson 16' to the pedal. The organ was inaugurated on September 6, 1998.
