Address: St2256, 97215, Adelhofen
Description nr.: 2064508.
Built by: Peter Paul Köberle (1969) - opus 35
The organ contains older material: Organ case from 1789 by Franz Joseph Zettler
In 1789, Franz Joseph Zettler built a new organ for the church of Adelhofen, after a new nave was built in 1786-1787. The previous organ from 1751, with seven stops, was removed before the rebuilt of the church. The Zettler organ remained until 1969. A restoration took place in 1879 by Friedrich Hirsch (who probably replaced the Quint 3' by a Salicional 8'), and reparations by the company Gebr. Mann in 1954. However, in 1969 a new organ was installed in the old case by Peter Paul Köberle, with two manuals and pedal.
