- Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Minneapolis is gebouwd in 1940-1941. In 1954 bouwde de firma Kilgen een drieklaviers orgel voor deze kerk, dat op 5 juni 1955 in gebruik werd genomen. In de kerk stond voor die tijd een klein orgel met elf stemmen. De Harp op het Choir Organ is afkomstig uit een orgel van Kilgen uit 1917, dat op de daktuin stond van het Metropolitan Building in Minneapolis.
- In 1999 is het orgel gereviseerd. Daarbij is de Mixture van Swell gewijzigd.
