2007 Quentin Blumenroeder  new organ in old case

In 1907, Charles Mutin built a two-manual organ for the Église Protestante du Foyer de l'Âme, rue du Pasteur-Wagner in Paris. In 1966, the organ was restored by Théo Haerpfer, who also modernized the stop list. The Pédale was enlarged with two unit ranks. Because of the state of the organ, in 2007 the interior was replaced by a new organ, built by Quentin Blumenroeder. Two stops are located on special constructed slides, so they can be used on both manuals by choice.
