  • The organ in the Sankt Ulrichskirche in Bodenkirchen-Aich was built in 1992 by the company Eisenbarth. The prospect dates from 1774. This was constructed by Johann Schweinacher. The specification of the Hauptwerk and Pedal are taken from this instrument, but the new organ was enlarged with a second manual as a 'Hinterwerk' and a number of extra stops.
  • It is assumed that the original location of the Schweinacher organ was the the Abbey Church in Seligenthal. It was transferred to Aich around 1856. A new organ was installed behind the prospect in 1931 by Michael Weise, with ten stops on two manuals and pedal.
