1959 E.F. Walcker & Cie.3671 new organ
2005 Christian Erler  maintenance/reparations
2011 Rösel & Hercher  restoration

  • In 1959 the firm Walcker built a new organ for the Jesuit Church in Innsbruck. Consultants were Anton Heiller and Egon Kraus, organ professors from Vienna. The front was designed by architect Baurat Matuella, also from Vienna.
  • The organ was overhauled in 2005 by Christian Erler. In the years 2007 to 2011, the instrument was restored by Rösel & Hercher, whereby the stop list was changed. The Holzkrummhorn of the Rückpositiv was replaced by a Schalmey, and moved to the Brustwerk. The Brustwerk Regal was removed, but saved. The Hauptwerk was expanded with a Cornett. Finally, the Trompete 4' of the pedal was shifted to 8-feet.
