1976 Gerhard Schmid  new organ in old case

Johann Georg Fux built an organ for the Sankt Anna Basilika in Altötting in 1724. According to a disposition statement from 1823, the organ would not have had a pedal, but that is doubtful. This statement has probably not been complete. Around 1900 the interior was replaced by a three manual organ from the Heinrich Koulen company. This organ was replaced in 1976 by a new four-manual instrument by Gerhard Schmid.
