Oberlinger in Bonn-Beuel - lightning damage

PostSun Jun 17, 2018 3:10 pm

According to a report in the German-language Pfeifenorgelforum, the famous Oberlinger organ in St Josef, Bonn-Beuel (sample-set by Pipeloops) was damaged by lightning in a recent storm.
The lightning strike knocked out much of the church's electrical systems and the organ is currently unplayable.
Damage is estimated at c.€10,000.
