Built by: Wilhelm Sauer Orgelbau (1924) - opus 1276
Demolished (1970)


A new large church was built in Alsen in 1850, because the medieval church had become too small. However, this church building burned down completely in 1919. A new church was built according to a design by Gustav Holmdahl, which was consecrated in 1924. The Wilhelm Sauer firm built an organ for this church. It was a two-manual pneumatic organ with twenty registers. In 1970 it was replaced by a mechanical organ from Åkerman & Lund. The facade from 1924 has remained in the church.
