Updated through on-line information from James R. Stettner. -- This organ was built for the "Old Chapel" built in 1751, and replaced a 1759 Klemm-Tannenberg. The Erben cost $1,050,00, and Erben himself was on-hand for its installation in June, 1857. It was stored in 1942, and later resurrected. It now resides in the 1803-06 building in the "Kleiner Saal."
