Built by: Heintz Orgelbau (2008) - opus 208


In 2008, the Heintz company built a new organ for the Sankt Martinkirche in Westerstetten. The instrument replaced an organ by Späth (opus 448 or 452) from 1933. This organ was built with material from Link from 1860 (opus 23), and was in turn converted in 1974 by the Reiser company under advice by Walter Supper. Volker Linz was consultant during the construction of the Heintz organ.
