Geißler organ in the Bergkirche Eilenburg

Conrad Geißler (1825 - 1897) ran his own workshop in Eilenburg from 1852 to 1897 after his apprenticeship and apprenticeship with Weinecke, Ladegast, Mende and Walcker. In 1864, he built the organ for St. Mary's Church, also known as the Bergkirche, as Opus 27. II/22. With mechanical action and slider windchests, the organ was given a swell. Between 1975 and 1999 the organ was unplayable. In 2000, a general overhaul was carried out by the company Mitteldeutscher Orgelbau A. Voigt GmbH.
