DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
The pipe organ was originally installed at Trinity Lutheran in Roselle, IL. The organ was removed during a renovation and subsequently sold to St. Paul in Dubuque. The organ installation was done by Levsen in 1996. The organ remained original with the exception of adding an 8' Celeste TC in the Swell, which was from St. Paul's previous Wicks organ, which now resides at Our Savior Lutheran in Manchester, IA. The organ is used every weekend for services and receives regular care. The instrument has developed some console and relay issues, as well as some minor pipe damage, which will be repaired during a restoration planned for 2025.
