1875 Stiehr-Mockers  new organ
1906 Franz Kämmerer  rebuild

  • In 1875, the Stiehr-Mockers firm built an organ with seven registers and an attached pedal for the Sankt Laurentiuskirche in Büchelberg. In 1906 the instrument was rebuilt by Franz Kämmerer. He replaced the Gedecktflöte 4' with an Octave 4', moved the Gamba 4' to a Gamba 8' and the Octave 2' was replaced by a Voix Celeste and an Aeoline. He made the pedal independent with a Subbass 16'. He also modified the Mixtur, with the lowest choir on 2 2/3' in stead of 2'.
  • The organ was lost in 1945 due to war violence.
