The organ contains older material: Prospect from 1885 by Anders Thulé


In 1938 the old Aleksanterin Kirkko (Alexander Church) in Tampere largely burned down. The organ was lost, but the facade could be restored. After a design by Aarne Wegelius, the Kangasala firm built a new organ behind the front of Thulé from 1885. The front pipes are not speaking. The organ has four manuals and pedal and sixty stops. It was inaugurated on February 16, 1939 with a concert by Aarne Wegelius.
