Notes

2007-11-28 - Identified from factory documents and publications courtesy of Stephen Schnurr. -Database Manager

2016-12-07 - Destroyed when the 150-foot tall steeple was struck by lightning, causing the church to burn to the ground. -Database Manager

2016-12-08 - Updated through online information from Dirk Lindner. -- The Möller Op 5228 (1928) no longer exists. It was destroyed when the church was struck by lightning in 1938 and burned to the ground. The interior photo on the OHS database is of the new church, built in 1940. Source of information - Mamrelund Church history, personal knowledge. Great to see the old organ specs, though - I'd never seen them. -Database Manager
