Notes

2004-10-30 - Status Note: There 1991. -Database Manager

2006-01-09 - Updated through online information from James R. Stettner. -Database Manager

2021-12-13 - The pipework for the top manual is on the same level as the Hauptwerk and immediately behind the facade. It is a tenor C, V-rank Cornet and the only stop on that manual - so there is no stop action. -Jim Stettner
