Bartlme Lenntzl built an organ for the Spitalkirche in Meran in 1515-1516. It was placed like a swallow's nest in the south transept. The instrument was rebuilt in 1689-1690 by Johann Caspar Humpel. It was demolished in 1868 and replaced by a new organ by Josef Aigner. The doors of the Lenntzl organ have been preserved. These are exhibited as paintings in the church. It is assumed that Wolfgang Lobeysen created the paintings.
