FREIBURG.
ST. NICOLAS.—This famous organ stands in a modern Gothic gallery at the west end of the Church. The outline of the case (which is also modern Gothic) is a large gable, having in the centre a tall tower, with two tiers of seven pipes each. The compartments on each side of this have each two tiers of pipes, between which is wood work, containing a rose of Gothic tracery. Beyond this is a tall tower of five pipes, then a flat of tall pipes, and the organ terminates at each end with a tower of five pipes. All the work is crowned with pinnacles and tabernacle work, the wood-work is pale oak, with gilding about it. Although intended to be a handsome case I do not quite like it. The tone of the organ is good, especially the echo, and the vox humana has a great renown. 1868.
