  • Sions Kirke in Copenhagen was dedicated on September 27, 1896. In 1898 Knud Olsen built an organ for the church, which was expanded in 1909 by I. Starup. In 1935 Starup built a new organ, using some of the material from the old organ. The instrument was expanded in 1949 and then had twenty stops.
  • In 1995 the organ was restored by Albert Lang and transferred to the Roman Catholic cathedral of Sankt Ansgar. This church was completely restored in the years 1988-1992. The organ present was too small for the church. Architect Vilhelm Wohlert designed a new prospect for the organ. It was consecrated on November 11, 1995 by Bishop Czeslaw Kozon.
