Sant'Antonio in Campo Marzio - Pipe organ

The pipe organ features multiple registers and stands prominently above the entrance on the balcony of Sant'Antonio dei Portoghesi church in Rome.

Manuel Pereira de Sampayo commissioned the original organ in 1748 for the Universal Jubilee of 1750, marking a significant period in the church's musical heritage.

The instrument maintains regular concert schedules through the Portuguese Institute of Sant'Antonio, presenting diverse selections from classical organ repertoire throughout the year.

Visitors can attend organ performances during religious services and scheduled concerts, with the main entrance located at Via dei Portoghesi in central Rome.

The organ underwent modifications by Jean Guillou in 2008, incorporating technical improvements while preserving the historical case from the Ditta Fratelli Ruffatti reconstruction.
