  • The organ of the Katholische Pfarr- und Wallfahrtskirche Sankt Burkard in Beinwil im Freiamt was built in 1883 as opus 36 by Friedrich Goll with mechanical action and cone chests. It was a two-manual organ with fifteen stops. It was built in connection to a major renovation of the church building in the years 1882-1885.
  • In the years 1923 to 1925, Paul Goll expanded the organ to 22 stops, and rebuilt the action to tubular pneumatic, with a new console. A new 'Taschenlade' was manufactured for the second manual, and this work was relocated in a swell box. Consultants during this work were Josef Dobler and Stephan Koller.
  • In 1974, the company Cäcilia carried out a conversion. In 2001, the Goll organ was reconstructed to the 1925 situation by Armin Hauser. The reconstructed organ was dedicated on October 13, 2001. The official opening took place on December 6, 2001 with a play by Egon Schwarb.
