  Christian Reinhold  modify stoplist

  • In 1983, Eule built a new organ for the Stadtkirche in Limbach. It replaced an instrument by Jehmlich from 1918 with 28 stops, which had not functioned properly for many years. Construction consultant was mr. Metz, cathedral organist from Zwickau. The classically styled organ case was designed by the architect Schüler. Some wooden pipes were taken from the old organ. The organ was taken into use on June 19, 1983.
  • Over time, the organ has been maintained by Christian Reinhold. He made some modifications. For example, the Oktave 2' of the Schwellwerk and the Waldflöte 2' of the Hauptwerk switched places. The Quintadena 16' has been revoiced, making the register sound like Lieblich Gedeckt. Finally, Reinhold altered the composition of the Mixtur of the pedal. The Choralbaß 4' has been removed from the Mixtur, and a Quinte 2 2/3' has been placed in the Mixtur.
