Description nr.: 2002724.

Built by: Karl Göckel (1999) - opus 39


  • In Gackenbach, the firm Karl Göckel built an organ with a stop list in style of the organs of the French Romanticism. The pedal consists almost entirely of transmissions from the Hauptwerk. The Flûte Harmonique of the Schwellwerk is on a special slide, and can also be used on the Hauptwerk if desired. The organ is completely loacted in a swell box, with the exception of the Montre 8' which is arranged in the prospect.
  • After placing an old English organ in as a choir organ in 2009, it was made possible to also play the Göckel organ from the keyboards of the choir organ.
