In July 2025, two new organs were installed in the renovated beautiful Rococo church of St. Martin in Messkirch, with the main organ on the upper gallery and a choir organ in the upper sacristy.

The Bourdon 16 ', Subbass 16 ' and Flötenbass 8 ' stops from a previous instrument dating from 1901 (Wilhelm Schwarz, Überlingen) were successfully integrated into the sound concept of the new organ.

The main organ, with its gold-decorated facade pipes, was placed centrally on the upper gallery directly above the royal box. The choir organ was installed concealed in the upper sacristy. Both organs can be played via the three-manual console on the organ loft. The main organ is mechanical, the choir organ purely electric. An additional mobile central console is available for musical accompaniment in the choir room, from which the entire organ system can also be played.

It was a great honour for us to be able to realise this exciting organ project in this wonderful church interior.
