Built by: Lifart Orgelbau AG (1943)
Replaced with new organ (1992)
- In 1942-1943 the company Cäecilia AG from Luzern (today Lifart Orgelbau AG) built a new organ for the Sankt Mauritiuskirche in Ruswil. The instrument had three manuals and pedal with a total number of 41 stops, including two transmissions. It replaced an organ from 1868 by Johann Andreas Otto. Only a few ranks were taken over from this instrument. A choir organ was also installed, that could be connected to the console of the main organ. On April 11, 1943, the organ was dedicated.
- The instrument has been dismantled in 1992, and was replaced by a new organ by Friedrich Goll Orgelbau.
