Jehmlich Organ in the St. Aegidien Church in Oschatz

Church
In 1851, C.G. Jehmlich & Sons built the organ in the St. Aegidien Church in Oschatz.

Carl Gottlieb Jehmlich (1786 - 1867) & Sons, Zwickau, built the mechanical tracker action organ based on six earlier instruments in 1851 with slider chests. II /44 Organs have been traceable in St. Aegidien since 1495. In 1933, the tonal and technical modification and expansion of a third keyboard took place. III/56. A new console, with a manual range of C - a''', a pedal range of C - f' and electro-pneumatic action, demonstrate the state of technology of the era. Once renovation works on the church began in 2002, the organ was sealed and from 2003-2005, was restored based on its original construction concept from 1933 by the organ workshop of Christian Scheffler of Sieversdorf.
