- In 1973/1974 the Kuhn company built a three-manual organ for the parish church of Sankt Franziskus in Zurich-Wollishofen. Josef Bucher was consultant during the construction. Kurt Lifart designed the front. The organ was dedicated on April 7, 1974.
- In 2001 Kuhn carried out an overhaul. A modern Setzer installation has been installed. Furthermore, the Dulcian 16' of the Schwellwerk was replaced by an Oboe 8'. Finally, the Mixtur register of the pedal has been adjusted so that only the Octave 4' sounds when the button is half-pulled.
