Complete description of the selected organ
Weinheim (Alzey), Deutschland (Rheinland-Pfalz) - Evangelische Kirche
Municipal: Alzey
Address: Hauptstraße 32, 55232, Weinheim
Website: https://offenheim-evangelisch.de/
Description nr.: 2010176.
Built by: Gebrüder Stumm (ca. 1800)
In the church of Weinheim there is an organ attributed to the workshop Stumm. The year of construction is uncertain, but the organ was presumably purchased after work was carried out on the church building in 1792. The instrument was originally a balustrade organ, but was later placed on the gallery behind the balustrade. Carl Landolt made an independent pedal in 1838. He also altered the specification. More original ranks were lost during a rebuild by Heinrich Bechstein in 1892. The prospect pipes were requisitioned in 1917 and replaced by zinc ones in 1922. Förster & Nicolaus restored the organ in 1975. They reconstructed the organ to the situation from before 1838, but the Landolt pedal was preserved.
