Built by: Georg Jann (1980) - opus 47
| Year | Builder | Opus | Activity | 1980 | Georg Jann | 47 | new organ | 2012 | Josef Maier | restoration |
- The organ in the Sankt Josefkirche in Memmingen was built in 1980 by Georg Jann. A few years later it was expanded with an Untersatz 32' on the pedal, with an extension as Subbass 16'. The existing Subbass was given the name Zartbass. The Kleinpommer 2' has been renamed Cornett 2'.
- In 2012, the organ was restored by Josef Maier, with the intonation revised. The disposition has been slightly modified. The Schwebung of the Schwellwerk is placed as Salicional on the Hauptwerk on the location of the Cymbel. On the Schwellwerk, the Salicional has been altered to a Schwebung and a Gambe has been added. The Holzprinzipal has been changed into a Flauto.
