This is the organ at the Stadtpfarrkirche Linz. The oldest cathedral in Linz, I've seen plaques with dates back to 1000. A Romanesque basilica was built on this site in 1286 and in 1648 the church was rebuilt in the Baroque style. The organ is in the romantic style and was just recently finished. I went to a concert on it by Thomas Schmogner who was performing Anton Bruckner's Symphonie Nr. 9 in d-moll. It was Schmogner's s own transcription for organ including the 4th movement which he had constructed from manuscripts.
