  • The Sankt Michaelkirche in Zug was dedicated in 1902. The building is designed by Karl Moser in Gothic Revival style, but the interior contains many Art Nouveau elements. The first organ was build by the Kuhn company with 43 stops. The front was designed by Karl Moser and was made in such a way that the rose window in the west facade remained visible.
  • This organ was demolished in June 1964 and has been replaced by a completely new instrument, also built by the Kuhn company.
