1980 E.F. Walcker & Cie.  restoration

The first organ built by Eberhard Friedrich Walcker was for the Evangelische Kirche in Kochersteinfeld in 1820/1821. The instrument was restored in 1980 by the Walcker company and transferred to the Ordenskapelle in Ludwigsburg. With this restoration, the disposition has been returned to its original state. For this purpose a new Waldflöte 2' was made, which took the place of a Principal 8' from 1902 from the company Link.
