Jehmlich organ in St. Mary's Cathedral Wurzen

The oldest predecessor instrument in St. Marien can be traced back to 1503. Further instruments of varying sizes are documented until 1931/32, when Jehmlich Bros. of Dresden built a new organ with electropneumatic controls and a mobile console in connection with the historicizing redesign of the interior (III/44). The free pipe façade corresponds entirely to the concept of the new interior design. 1998 - 2001/2007 a general overhaul was carried out by the company Christian Reinhold, Bernsdorf. The specification was partly changed and extended. The organ currently has 48 stops and 7 transmissions/extracts on three manuals.
