Organi di San Lorenzo

The pipe organ in St. Lorenz Church is a large wooden and metal instrument with numerous pipes installed at several locations throughout the church space. The pipes vary in size and shape, making the instrument visually striking and sonically versatile in its range of tones.

The instrument was installed in 1862, representing new possibilities in organ-building craftsmanship during the industrial age. This installation shaped the musical equipment of the church into the present day.

The organ sounds regularly during church services and concerts, where worshippers experience it as an integral part of the sacred space. This instrument connects spiritual music to the daily life of the community that gathers to listen to its tones.

The best time to hear this instrument is during regular church services or scheduled concert events, with program information posted at the church entrance. It is worth checking event times ahead of your visit to plan the best moment to experience the music.

The instrument features a mechanical system with more than 2,000 individual pipes that allow the player to produce different sound combinations through skilled control. Each pipe contributes to a different part of the overall tone, making every performance a varied sonic experience.
