was entirely enclosed and expressive. The exposed Gemshorn unit and Koppel Flute
were added in 19 . The console is on the front, right side of the church with
the organist facing the congregation over the top of the console. The choir
gallery is to the organists left.
The bottom 17 pipes of the 16'/8' Principal unit are of open wood.
