On December 21, 1877, a new organ was built in the Kostel sv. Vojtecha (Church of St. Vojtech) in Prague, built by the company Steinmeyer. The organ replaced an older instrument, which was transferred to the Kostel sv. Haštala. At the beginning of the twentieth century the Clarinet was replaced by a Voix Celeste. In the meantime this stop is no longer present, but the Clarinet has not been re-installed either. A restoration was carried out in 1995-1996 by František Krutský.
