1891 Heinrich Voit & Söhne  new organ
1994 Karl Göckel26 restoration and enlargement

  • In 1891 the company H. Voit & Söhne built a new two-manual organ for the church in Kirrlach. The eighteen-stop organ was designed with the intention of expanding it over time. However, this was never realised. The front pipes were requisitioned in 1917. These were later replaced by zinc pipes.
  • When a restoration was necessary, it was decided to expand the instrument in the style of Voit. The Göckel company completed this work in 1994. A third keyboard (Unterwerk) was made with seven stops and ten registers were added to the existing disposition. As a result, the organ has become almost twice as large. The complete instrument has been kept in the style of Voit, using data from larger Voit organs from Ladenburg, Karlsruhe and Heidelberg. New front pipes have also been installed.
