Built by: Winterhalter Orgelbau (2006)


Since 1991, the right gallery of the Eberhardkirche in Stuttgart has been furnished for choirs, with room for other musicians as well. The desire for a choir organ in this gallery had therefore existed for some time. In 2006, the Winterhalter company was commissioned to build a two-manual organ. The sound character is inspired by nineteenth-century organs by Walcker, while the Trompette is a style copy of Cavaillé-Coll. An original Walcker-Subbaß from 1880 could be used for the pedal. This is combined with the Gedacktbaß. Advisors during the construction were Martin Dücker and Ludger Lohmann. The organ was put into use on October 22, 2006.
