was the adviser of the project. The costs of the project: EUR 320,000.-
The following activities were undertaken:
• The complete tracker action mechanism, windchests and pipework were taken to
the workshop
• Cleaning and restoration of the pipework.
• Reconstruction of later pipework.
• Restoration of the organ case.
• Restoration of mechanism and windchests.

Heiko Lorenz.
