  • In 1901, Johann Wolf built a second organ for the Domkirche in Bamberg, that was located on the northside of the nave next to the eastside of the choir, the Georgenchor. It has thirteen stops on two manuals and pedal. The Geigenprinzipal 8' of the second manual has been replaced at an unknown time by a Flöte 2'.
  • This organ was in use until a new choir organ was installed by Steinmeyer in 1941. The Wolf organ was relocated to the Sankt Getreukirche by Michael Weise. In 1955 a new organ was built for this church by the company Dietmann. They restored the old instrument and installed it in the Sankt Ägidiuskirche in Mönchherrnsdorf in 1955.
