- The neo-gothic Bühlkirche in Wiedikon was built in the years 1895-1896 to a design by Paul Reber. The church was opened on November 29, 1896. Friedrich Goll built an organ for the church, which was placed in a neo-Gothic organ case above the pulpit. The organ was built with cone chests and pneumatic action. It was converted in 1928 and expanded in 1961 and 1972.
- In 1984 the company Kuhn carried out a thorough restoration. The organ was put back into use on January 13, 1985. Kuhn rebuilt the organ with new mechanical action and electric slider chests. The organ received a modern setzer installation with 32 combination options. This was replaced in 2003 by a modern computer-controlled setzer with 3000 combinations.
