Stoplist:
The great Auenkirche organ presently has 117 ranks with 79 voices/registers and 3 transmissions on 4 manuals and pedal. When this last enlargement is completed it should have 121 ranks with 83 voices/registers, 1 extension and 4 transmissions. This would make it Berlin's second largest organ (next to the Berlin Cathedral organ). è Complete stoplist (will open up in a separate window). |

Any donations are highly welcome :-) The Auenkirche congregation would be very grateful for any donations. Donation receipts will be gladly provided! Contact: Kantorat der Auenkirche Wilhelmsaue 118a • D - 10715 Berlin • Germany Tel.: +49 30 / 40 50 45 34-0 (or -5) We just received the sad news that the long-time organist and curator of the Auenkirche Organ, Mr. Jörg Strodhoff, passed away on June 10th, 2013. There is no news yet as to what will become of the organ project. By the way, if you would build this organ from scrap today it would cost you about 2 million EUR / 2.6 million US$ |
